As far as I can tell, the script does not run on install even when I
setup the package to require admin or root access.  I'm not sure what
I'm doing wrong, and some suggestions would be nice.  Thanks

postinstall scripts are only called on the first install of a package.
If you have previously installed this package during your tests, there
is a receipt of this package in /Library/Receipts or ~/Library/Receipts.


If you want this script to be run for every install, you need to move
to a postflight script.

I changed the Bash script from postinstall to postflight, removed the receipts anyway, and the script still does't run. I also tried naming the script with explicit extension postflight.sh and that didn't seem to work either. Here is the install log.

There should be no extension. Are the permissions correct? (executable flag?)


Maybe you can create a small test case so that someone can have a look at it.
