I have in my package a script named 'postflight'. It appears in the Contents/Resources directory of the package. It has the executable bits set. It is a Ruby script, with the first line being #! /usr/bin/ env ruby . Whenever I try the installer, the only error appearing in the log is this: <date> <hostname> : Install failed: The following install step failed: run postflight script for <myPackageName> The postflight script indeed has had none of its intended effects, even when I reduce it to deleting the installed payload. I have lots of debugging prints (both to stdout and stderr), but nothing from the script — nor prints, not scripting errors — shows up in the install log or the console. The task is to take a target directory installed in /Users/Shared, recursively set the ownership of a subdirectory to ENV['USER'] ($USER for shell fans), and move the subdirectory to ~/Library/Application\ Support, if such a folder does not already exist. It then deletes the wrapper directory from /Users/Shared. The script runs correctly in the command line, from within the pkg, and returns 0. This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
