OS X installer fails to execute

[gihrig]

On OS X I encountered a problem updating a Plastic full installation - client and server on the same machine.

 

Environment

OS X 10.6.8

Installed Plastic: 4.2.39.458 (using default SQLite data store)

New Plastic installer: PlasticSCM-5.0.44.505-osx-installer.app

 

I downloaded the latest full installer and executed it.

 

I received a dialog requesting my user name and password, when I entered the information the dialog cleared and nothing else happened.

 

The problem turned out to be the installer file is not executable:

 

$ ls -l /{path to}/PlasticSCM-5.0.44.505-osx-installer.app/Contents/MacOS/osx-intel

-rw-r--r--  1 glen  staff  3110411 Nov 16  2011 /{path to}/PlasticSCM-5.0.44.505-osx-installer.app/Contents/MacOS/osx-intel

I made the installer executable:

 

$ chmod +x /{path to}/PlasticSCM-5.0.44.505-osx-installer.app/Contents/MacOS/osx-intel

 

Now the installer works as expected.
