Installation failure trying to write a new file #486

Open mariovisic opened 9 years ago

mariovisic commented 9 years ago

I get the following error when running the installer; I have tried to run the uninstaller and then the installer again with the same error, not sure which file it's having issues with, otherwise i'd manually remove it

$ curl get.pow.cx | sh
*** Installing Pow 0.5.0...
*** Installing local configuration files...
/Users/mario/Library/LaunchAgents/cx.pow.powd.plist

/Users/mario/Library/Application Support/Pow/Versions/0.5.0/lib/command.js:78
            throw err;
                  ^
file exists

The command it's trying to run at the time is: sudo '/Users/mario/Library/Application Support/Pow/Current/bin/node' '/Users/mario/Library/Application Support/Pow/Current/bin/pow' --install-system

@mariovisic did you ever get a fix to install it?

I belive the issue was caused because I was symlinking my /etc/resolver folder to one I store on dropbox, without the symlink I think it works fine.
