Just wanted to let everyone know, Lion permissions default to not allowing Livecode to create folders in "/Library/Application Support/" with the "create folder" command.
Here's how we got around it: First, this put "mkdir" && quote & "/Library/Application Support/theNewFolderWeNeed2create" & quote into tCmd get shell (tCmd) put it returns "Permission denied". But this: put "sudo mkdir -p" && quote & "/Library/Application Support/theNewFolderWeNeed2create" & quote into tCmd get shell (tCmd) creates the folder, and oddly, does not prompt for the password, at least in the IDE (haven't tried with a standalone yet). Then, this: put "sudo chmod -Rfv 777" && quote & "/Library/Application Support/theNewFolderWeNeed2create" & quote into tCmd get shell (tCmd) makes it so that folders and items can be freely created in the new folder by Livecode on Lion. So everything is back to normal a la the Leopards. Hope this helps someone out. And, if anyone has a better way, please post! _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
