Title: Unable To Launch - OS X Lion 10.7 Post by: flynia on July 21, 2011, 10:51:48 pm Hi Team,
Please advise as I am recieving the following error when attempting to launch the game in the latest version of Mac OS X 10.7 Lion. Has anybody else had this issue? --- The Ur-Quan Masters encountered a fatal error. Part of the log follows: The Ur-Quan Masters v0.7.0 (compiled Jul 4 2011 14:09:37) This software comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details see the included 'COPYING' file. Netplay protocol version 0.4. Netplay opponent must have UQM 0.6.9 or later. Error: Can't create /Users/IanFlynn/.uqm: Permission denied Title: Re: Unable To Launch - OS X Lion 10.7 Post by: Gekko on July 22, 2011, 06:36:20 am sudo mkdir /Users/IanFlynn/.uqm
sudo chmod 755 /Users/IanFlynn/.uqm Should get you play, but this isn't a solution if this happens on all OS X Lions.

You will need to enter your password. I wonder if Lion has locked the home directory as a replacement for their existing Library protection. In the long term, I'd suggest instead putting the uqm files in ~/Library/Preferences/uqm/ on macs.

I actually think ~/Library/Application Support/uqm/ fits more into how Mac is supposed to do things; Preferences I think is usually used for a single file, usually (though not always) a plist file. |
