site_archiver@lists.apple.com Delivered-To: installer-dev@lists.apple.com Hi All, Prior to MacOS 10.5.x I had an AppleScript based installer as so: This has worked wonderfully since MacOS X 10.3.x. So, my question is: Thanks a lot All the Best Dave _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.

A .dmg file containing an Installer AppleScript Application (called "Double Click to Install & Launch".app) and a Folder. The Installer copies the folder from the image to "/Applications" on the system volume. 2. Once the folder had been copied, it launches another AppleScript App (called "CleanUp.app"). This ejects the image and launches the main application. There 10.5.x was released and the above still works BUT, we get 4 or 5 security dialogs as so: When the user attempts to mount the Image file, the OS displays the "File downloaded from Internet" dialog, this is ok, however, after that, when the user launches "Install.app" a similar dialog appears, the same goes for "Cleanup.app" and for "RealApp.app", so we get 4 dialogs in total. Obviously this is unacceptable so I posted to the Cocoa list and was advised to use PackageMaker to build an installer. So I built an installer but I can't get it to install the folder containing the files, so far I have only managed to get it to install the myApp.app file. I have read "PackageMaker User Guide" and AFAIK have following the instructions given there. Basically I just drag the folder containing the files to the PackageMaker project window and then set the setting as appropriate. Is it possible to create an installer with PackageMaker that does the same as the AppleScript, e.g. installs a folder in "/Applications" that contains the Application and other files?
