Re: MacOS X

I've finally had a chance to install JBuilder Turbo 2007 on a system
which is running Tiger (10.4).  I realize that you are running
Leopard -- unfortunately, I haven't upgraded any of my Macs to it.

The installation does work on my system.  Looking at the console
output, it says that ultimately, the launcher is running the
installer from the following folder:

   [path-to-where-you-unarchived-the-download]/MacOSX/Disk1/InstData/

What happens if you navigate in the Finder to where you
unarchived the download, and then navigate into

   MacOSX/Disk1/InstData

to find and run (by double-clicking on it)

   jbinstall

?

Before you do this, open Console.app, clear the console.log (clear 
button in toolbar), and then run the installer.  If it doesn't
succeed, paste the contents of the console log in a follow up
message.  Maybe we'll be able to figure out something, such as
an incompatibility between the InstallAnywhere software and Leopard
or something.

Well, I finally got a copy of JB2007R2 (Enterprise) downloaded, and I 
installed it on Leopard.  The install worked perfectly, as does the 
application.

This problem George reported must be specific to the version of the 
installer used for Turbo.

I'll try to go and download a copy of Turbo to confirm.
