Another good place for answer is the MacAdmins Slack: http://macadmins.org There's a #packaging channel that's worth checking out. That said, the first place I'd look is the log file at /var/log/install.log. That should explain what was happening when the user received that error message.

site_archiver(a)lists.apple.com Delivered-To: Installer-dev(a)lists.apple.com Thread-index: AQHVRkpteBS5F/M38EOAsqRezJhwKQ== Thread-topic: Installer error message Hi Guys, my name is Tom Flemming from QuoVadis. I'm developing apps for Mac and Windows, but Mac is still quiet new for me. We are experiencing a strange error with the installer-packages sometimes on some client-computers, which I can't figure out. Error is "You cannot install in this location. The installer does not allow its software to be installed here." Trying to find informations I was pointed to this list. Before going into detail, I want to make sure, if this list is still active or if there is a better place to ask? I'm using the Packages-app from Stéphane Sudre.
