Title: Application Folder created with "everyone" = "No Access"
I’m making a PackageMaker Distribution .mpkg with four packages and an application.
On Snow Leopard we had some users complain because the App folder Installer created inside Applications/ was getting created with permissions that was locking the user out (Everyone=No Access).
So I followed what I thought was the generally accepted wisdom, and set the permissions for all the installed items in my packages to owner = root, group = admin.
That didn’t make any difference. But it’s only a problem on Snow Leopard.
I wondered if the problem was that my application’s folder is only defined in the application packages’ “Destination” field — I don’t set up a prototype folder hierarchy inside the packages.
Pilot error? Or known issue?
Stephen
