I just finished a Cocoa App, created installation package, but it

is no where to be found on my disk. It was supposed go to
Applications. I deleted all other copies of application before
installing to be sure and still it did not go into Applications or
into anything. I searched in the Finder to confirm it was not
installed.
What could be going on?
Did you run the installer on your development machine? If so then I
believe you forgot to ensure that the "relocatable" option is NOT
checked. If it is (and it is by default and tend to reset itself to
the enabled state each time you build a new installation package) it
will find the one in your Xcode "build" directory and overwrite it.
Been bitten by that bug more times than I can count.
