---------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
follow the instructions in the issue
> Cordova Installer Fails
> -----------------------
>
> Key: CB-270
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-270
> Project: Apache Callback
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: iOS
> Environment: Mac OS X
> Reporter: Shazron Abdullah
> Assignee: Shazron Abdullah
> Labels: installer
>
> Show the Installer Log and report an issue in the Google Groups or Cordova
> Issue Tracker (JIRA here).
>
> *How:*
> When the installer is launched, Apple-L to show the install log, then select
> "Show All Logs" from the drop-down list. Run through the installation until
> you get the error (don't close the installer down yet). Copy and Paste the
> log.
> *Permissions Issues*
> A previous installer (Cocos2D as an example that does this) installs their
> own templates using the Root user, causing permissions issues for the
> PhoneGap installer, which does not need root privileges to install.
>
> Substitute [USERNAME] below for the name of your home account.
> *The log might show this:*
> {code}
> /preinstall: mkdir:
> /Users/[USERNAME]/Library/Developer/Xcode/Templates/Project Templates:
> Permission denied
> {code}
> *In Terminal, if you do:*
> {code}
> ls -la "/Users/[USERNAME]/Library/Developer/Xcode/" and go to the row with
> Templates
> {code}
> *It would show for example:*
> {code}
> drwxr-xr-x 12 root staff 408 3 May 00:18 Templates
> {code}
> That's the problem, the owner of the folder is root. You'll have to reclaim
> this for your current user.
>
> *How:*
> {code}
> sudo chown [USERNAME] "/Users/[USERNAME]/Library/Developer/Xcode/Templates"
> {code}
>
> *Run the installer again, and it should work this time.*
