My Application is now getting launched immediately after the installation process is completed. There was a small glitch in my script...it wasn't returning, thereby not allowing the postflight script to exit and the Install to complete normally. Thanks a lot for the inputs.

I would think that using "open /Applications/MyApp.app" should open the application, and return, allowing the postflight script to exit and the Install to complete normally. - Luke On Jun 19, 2006, at 6:28 AM, amritendu.majumdar@wipro.com wrote:

Hi Alex,

Thanks for the prompt reply. I have already tried running a postflight script. The script runs after my software has been installed at the required

location, but it is within the installation process ,i.e. unless I quit my application which has been launched by the postflight script the installer GUI doesn't report "The software was successfully installed".

How do I solve this problem.

Amrit.

You can do that with a postflight script: http://developer.apple.com/ documentation/DeveloperTools/Conceptual/SoftwareDistribution/Concepts/ sd_pre_post_processing.html

Hi All,

I am relatively new to Mac OS X . I want to launch my Cocoa Application immediately after it has been installed, without restarting the system. How do I achieve this functionality? I am using Package Maker to Build the Distribution packages.

Looking forward for some help and guidance,
