0.10 release does not install on OSX El Capitan #1883

Open smalenfant opened 8 years ago

smalenfant commented 8 years ago

The 0.10 installer for OSX in El Capitan complains about "This package is incompatible with this version of OSX and may fail to install". Continuing the installation fails...

Works fine under OSX Yosemite.

I experienced the same issue.

Any updates on this end?

The issue is SIP in El Capitan.
The installer installs to what is now considered a protected directory /usr/share.
You can work around this by installing to a none root mount point like this:

sudo installer -pkg /tmp/heka-0_10_0-darwin-amd64.pkg -target /Volumes/usb_stick/

You can then move the files around as you see fit.
The fix is likely to create the installer so that it is installing into /usr/local or better yet /opt.
