Hello. Since the Leopard update to the Mac OS X last year, the Mac version of GAP doesn't seem to work. I've raised this with Alexander Hulpke, but I keep having the same problem. The possibility was raised that it had to do with file permissions on the folder where GAP was installed, but I've checked the file permissions and there seems to be no restriction.
These are lines from the console from the last time I tried to run GAP ------------------------ 16/12/2009 19:21:18 [0x0-0x33033].net.sourceforge.ggap.ggap[262] D: SettingsPrefs "/Users/sandeepmurthy/Library/Preferences/net.sourceforge.ggap.ggap.plist" 16/12/2009 19:21:18 [0x0-0x33033].net.sourceforge.ggap.ggap[262] D: SettingsState "/Users/sandeepmurthy/Library/Preferences/net.sourceforge.ggap.ggap-state.plist" 16/12/2009 19:21:34 [0x0-0x33033].net.sourceforge.ggap.ggap[262] D: ini file '/Volumes/sandeepmurthy/Library/Application Support/ggap/workspace.ini' does not exist 16/12/2009 19:21:34 [0x0-0x33033].net.sourceforge.ggap.ggap[262] *** Critical: could not create directory ' "/Volumes/sandeepmurthy/Library/Application Support/ggap" ' 16/12/2009 19:21:46 com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[98] ([0x0-0x33033].net.sourceforge.ggap.ggap[262]) Job appears to have crashed: Abort trap 16/12/2009 19:21:47 ReportCrash[265] Saved crash report for ggap[262] version 1.9.6 (1.9.6) to /Users/sandeepmurthy/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/ggap_2009-12-16-192147_sandeep-murthys-macbook.crash --------------------------- Would appreciate some help, and I'm unable to run GAP directly.
