When folders or apps (which are folders) are dragged into Packages, they can't be expanded. Not sure why, it would be great to have this capability. I saw this happen in the past, figured it was due to the *.app permissions. After I correctly set the owner:group on the app, I pulled it into Packages and I made sure I left this checkbox unchecked. This way Packages can properly set owner:group. http://donmontalvo.com/installerdev/packages-do-not-keep-owner-and-group.jpg You can also select the app in Packages and set owner:group, permissions, etc., and trickle downward. Packages is a pretty awesome app, hoping to see template capability at some point in the future. :) Don Conor Schutzman wrote:

After adding the .app to the payload tab, richter click and select "expand fully". You shouldn't need to, but it's the only thing I can think of.

I’m trying to create a package using Packages.

I add the .app to the contents of my payload; however, the icon disappears and when it runs, the Contents folder (and everything in it) is not installed.

I feel like I’m missing something silly but can’t figure out what…

Any help is appreciated.
