Barry Is this the password for CF or the password for the MAC user? Depending on how the MAC is set up, your user may not have permissions to uninstall the program. Maybe try the sys admin user.

"enter the password for the current user" I enter (and confirm) my usual, bog standard, used a million times before user (root) password - the same one used to install the thing in the first place (and start Apache and MySQL), checking for caps-lock, etc.... "the password you have entered for [me] is invalid. Please enter the correct password" WTF?!? this is indeed the correct root password. I've run the uninstall.app from terminal with sudo and, after prompting me for the password still does the same thing. doesn't like my password. I need to get rid of all traces of JRun and CF7 so I can install a diff version. and I've astounded a couple of Mac friends with this grief. any suggestions? anyone come across this before? thanx b --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "cfaussie" group.
