Re: Failed Installation on OS X Tiger
site_archiver@lists.apple.com Delivered-To: installer-dev@lists.apple.com The package uses no authorization. A Normal install Log looks as follows: Thanks, Eric Zimmerman Software Engineer Outhink, Inc. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.

My first guess would be that if a user installs the package as a regular NON admin user, they will not be able to write SpinXpress.app into /Applications, although I don't really know why it errors out on Info.plist rather then one of the above directories. Chris My installer seems to work on OS 10.2, 10.3, & 10.4 that I have tested, but I just had a user run into trouble with the install on their OS X 10.4 machine. They get the following error show up in their install Log: Jun 24 13:20:03 Computer : Extracting files Jun 24 13:20:03 Computer : BomFileError 13: Permission denied - / Applications/SpinXpress.app/Contents/Info.plist Jun 24 13:20:03 Computer : 4 files looked up in 0.00 seconds. 4 files written in 0.01 seconds. Jun 24 11:00:27 Computer : Extracting files Jun 24 11:00:29 Computer : 608 files looked up in 0.04 seconds. 608 files written in 1.71 seconds. Jun 24 11:00:29 Computer : 8841 kilobytes installed. I am pretty new to the PackageMaker installer process and am not really sure what steps to take to get further debug information or find out what is going on. I also could not find BOMFileError referenced in Google or on apples website. Any information or pointing me in the correct direction would be great. I am guessing this is not directly related to OS X 10.4 but I really don't know. It is a free application and the installer is publicly available at http://www.outhink.com/SpinXpressInstall.dmg if that helps. This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
