Re: apple package on iso cdrom
site_archiver@lists.apple.com Delivered-To: installer-dev@lists.apple.com Hello, Does anybody know about a problem running apple packages on a iso 9660 volume ? I made my installer with PackageMaker on Panther, and it is working perfectly on the disk. But if I burn an iso CDRom (need to release a PC/MAC CDRom) then then installer won't work on Jaguar. Here is what I get in the log : Error detected Name: NSGenericException Reason: Unable to create destination receipt directory at /tmp/.ARP2600 V.pkg.649.install/Receipts/ARP2600 V.pkg/Contents I guess it's a permission error, as the only things that changed with the package on the disk are file permissions. Is there any solution, or do I just have to put a dmg on the CDRom to preserve file permissions ? This is a guess, but it looks like you may have hit an ongoing issue when spaces occur in the .pkg name or path. We hit this some time ago, but I don't know whether our lead Mac developer logged a bug with Apple. We learned of it when users dragged our installer .pkg from the .dmg on which we distribute it, to their local disk. Lots of errors can be seen, depending on the routines your install uses. Hope that helps, Ted Hi Ted, and thanks for your feedback. Best regards, Nicolas _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
