I was looking for a log file with my package name, or something derived from it, so I hadn't spotted it. Kevin _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.

Is there a plist setting for the installer log name? Can I rename it in my postflight script? (The installer goes on writing to it after postflight exists, so that sounds a bit dodgy...) This is basically a system log file, so you don't want to rename it or remove it. If you want to save a copy, then save a copy... Have a script do 'cp /var/log/install.log <wherever you want to put it>' It does roll over when it hits 1MB, so you definitely want to save it off if you need to refer to it later.
