I can get the installer we want in the GUI version of PackageMaker but we need to automate the making f our installer and I need to use the command-line version of PackageMaker. I would like to use the PMDOC created by the GUI version in the command-line version. But everything I've tried with that causes PackageMaker to crash with an NSInvalidArgumentException. Yet if I run the GUI version from the same PMDOC file, it works. In case it offers any clues, here is the command-line I use for this:

packagemaker --doc OurApp.pmdoc

For some reason, packagemaker requires the --id argument even when you specify the --doc argument.  Try

packagemaker --id com.yourcompanyname.yourApp --doc OurApp.pmdoc

It's not clear to me whether/how the value specified with --id is being used, since it also appears in the .pmdoc.

--c
