| Hello All,
I've run into an issue with the following installer postinstall script:
#!/bin/sh
# postinstall.sh
rm -f /Library/Application\ Support/Eternal/Eternal™\ Photo\ Drive.dmg mkdir -p /Library/Application\ Support/Eternal cp /Volumes/Eternal™\ Photo\ Drive/.Gozinta_support/Eternal™\ Photo\ Drive.dmg /Library/Application\ Support/Eternal/
The function of the script is to make a copy of the installer (and all of it's support files) and place it somewhere on the drive where it will be accessible to the application later. The file needs to be installed in a manner that allows it to be read by all users.
The issue is that while the script used to work fine up until Lion, it now fails because /Library/Application Support/ is no longer user writable.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Ron Aldrich Software Architects, Inc.
