Hi Jacqueline, there was no user system, so I created it and set it to the owner of my app. But without result. When starting my app with another standard user, the icon zooms for a moment and then nothing happens, no launch. Any other idea? Thanks Tiemo -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von:

Hi Tiemo, can you have a look at the console application (in your applications/ utilities folder) - and check for all messages or console messages to see if there's any information about why your rev app didn't start up? It might give a hint about what's happening. On 17 Apr 2009, at

Hi Tiemo, certain parts of the application have to have execute access too. I think somehow the permissions got messed up when the app was transferred to the Mac. The app itself is just a folder containing a number of other files, any one (or more) of which could have its permissions

Hi Tiemo, directories have a d at the start of their permissions, so that's ok. Some of the items inside your app folder are directories, and some are files. It does look like the execute permission for that second file you mention is missing for all users other than the owner - which

Hiya, This seems to have taken a roundabout route to sort out! I haven't had any such issues with Mac installs: Could the problem lie elsewhere? I'm wondering if, in the creation of the CD, the permissions have been mangled by whatever was used to create it? Opening a dmg and then

Hi Tiemo, it looks like something is trashing the execute permissions between the Windows system and the Mac DMG. I always build my standalones on a Mac, so its not something I've come across. Presumably when Rev on Windows builds a Mac standalone, it gives the app it produces the
