Error on install #1

Closed coreylight closed 10 years ago

coreylight commented 10 years ago

Getting an error trying to use the Soundflower.pkg from this tag: https://github.com/crmne/Soundflower/releases/tag/1.6.7-mavericks

"The Installation Failed" "The Installer encountered an error that caused the installation to fail. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance."

My machine: OSX 10.9.2. Xcode 5.1.1

Not sure how I can debug this to help further.

It should be fixed now in https://github.com/crmne/Soundflower/releases/tag/1.6.7-mavericks-p1, but I couldn't test it in another system so let me know!

coreylight commented 10 years ago

Still same error for me. :( Anything I can do to help debug?

Yes, could you press ⌘L and select Show All Logs and then paste it here? Thanks :)

Is that all the logs you got in that window? If so can you post me the output of

$ which bash
$ ls -lah `which bash`

Otherwise please post everything that shows up there, and remember to select Show All Logs. Thanks!

Can you run other bash scripts properly? The installer stops because the preinstall script fails without even printing unload the old soundflower… Try to run the preinstall script in particular. Thanks

I ran the Uninstall script from terminal and then the pkg ran fine. I may have restarted before that as well. Thank you for all of your help and work on this package!

I'm glad it worked!
