Mac Installer not working

bigMatt · 06-03-2009, 01:04 PM

Running Mac OS X vs. 10.4.11

file downloaded just fine and unpacked just fine.

Click the OOTP 10 Installer and it won't launch. Tried to open the installer.pkg file in the data folder and just get a fail msg.

Restarted my computer and tried again. Same problem.

What is the size of the download in bytes that you have?

It should be 242,843,176 bytes.

242,843,690

I downloaded it from the mirror site - guessing that shouldn't matter...

bigMatt, Andreas mentioned that some of the mirrors needed a new Mac install build right before release. Try downloading from the official site instead of the mirror.

Oh, hang on. I've just realised that I was looking at the size of the previous build

Downloading right now. Will let you know. Thanks for the quick responses.

Looks like the mirror download was the problem. I downloaded again from the official site and it installed and is now running.

OK. Glad it's solved. I'll close this thread for that reason.
