My apologies in advance...I realize this is a Flex forum but the Adobe AIR forum over at http://forums.adobe.com/community/labs/air2?view=discussions doesn't have the expertise that exists here. There doesn't seem to be any Adobe AIR Engineers monitoring the forum too well either. Hear that Alex?
I am trying to install AIR 2 Beta 2 on OSX 10.6.2 and get the error below. I've tried lots of creative things that you will probably recommend and have the same result. Before I file a defect with Adobe, anybody have any ideas on how to work around this issue? "An error occurred while installing Adobe AIR. Installation may not be allowed by your administrator. Please contact your administrator." This is the command line output with not really very helpful error messages... 2010-02-08 18:39:42.216 Adobe AIR Installer[15285:903] Performing runtime install 2010-02-08 18:39:42.307 Adobe AIR Installer[15285:903] UI SWF load is complete 2010-02-08 18:39:42.511 Adobe AIR Installer[15285:903] UI initialized 2010-02-08 18:39:42.524 Adobe AIR Installer[15285:903] starting user confirmation 2010-02-08 18:39:42.527 Adobe AIR Installer[15285:903] Version of this installer: 2.0.0.11670 2010-02-08 18:39:42.528 Adobe AIR Installer[15285:903] Installed version: 1.5.3.9120 2010-02-08 18:39:42.529 Adobe AIR Installer[15285:903] Installation type: patchNewer 2010-02-08 18:39:44.688 Adobe AIR Installer[15285:903] starting elevated install 2010-02-08 18:39:45.066 Adobe AIR Installer[15304:e07] performing an elevated runtime install 2010-02-08 18:39:45.127 Adobe AIR Installer[15304:e07] UI SWF load is complete 2010-02-08 18:39:45.128 Adobe AIR Installer[15304:e07] starting install 2010-02-08 18:39:45.129 Adobe AIR Installer[15304:e07] Scheduling runtime installation operations 2010-02-08 18:39:45.133 Adobe AIR Installer[15304:e07] Beginning runtime installation 2010-02-08 18:39:45.162 Adobe AIR Installer[15304:e07] Beginning install 2010-02-08 18:39:45.166 Adobe AIR Installer[15304:e07] Copying /Library/Frameworks/Adobe AIR.framework to /private/var/folders/zz/zzzivhrRnAmviuee+++++++++++/TemporaryItems/FlashTmp0/te mp 2010-02-08 18:39:48.113 Adobe AIR Installer[15304:e07] Deleting /Library/Frameworks/Adobe AIR.framework 2010-02-08 18:39:48.205 Adobe AIR Installer[15304:e07] Copying /Users/jfinnigan/Desktop/AAI.app/Contents/Frameworks/Adobe AIR.framework to /Library/Frameworks/Adobe AIR.framework 2010-02-08 18:39:50.097 Adobe AIR Installer[15304:e07] Copying /Applications/Utilities/Adobe AIR Uninstaller.app to /private/var/folders/zz/zzzivhrRnAmviuee+++++++++++/TemporaryItems/FlashTmp1/te mp 2010-02-08 18:39:53.142 Adobe AIR Installer[15304:e07] Deleting /Applications/Utilities/Adobe AIR Uninstaller.app 2010-02-08 18:39:53.220 Adobe AIR Installer[15304:e07] Copying /Users/jfinnigan/Desktop/AAI.app to /Applications/Utilities/Adobe AIR Uninstaller.app 2010-02-08 18:39:55.338 Adobe AIR Installer[15304:e07] Copying /Applications/Utilities/Adobe AIR Uninstaller.app/Contents/Frameworks/Adobe AIR.framework/Versions/Current/Adobe AIR Application Installer.app to /private/var/folders/zz/zzzivhrRnAmviuee+++++++++++/TemporaryItems/FlashTmp2/te mp 2010-02-08 18:39:55.389 Adobe AIR Installer[15304:e07] Deleting /Applications/Utilities/Adobe AIR Uninstaller.app/Contents/Frameworks/Adobe AIR.framework/Versions/Current/Adobe AIR Application Installer.app 2010-02-08 18:39:55.398 Adobe AIR Installer[15304:e07] Copying /Users/jfinnigan/Desktop/AAI.app to /Library/Frameworks/Adobe AIR.framework/Versions/Current/Resources/Adobe AIR Updater.app 2010-02-08 18:39:57.529 Adobe AIR Installer[15304:e07] Copying /Library/Frameworks/Adobe AIR.framework/Versions/Current/Resources/Adobe AIR Updater.app/Contents/Frameworks to /private/var/folders/zz/zzzivhrRnAmviuee+++++++++++/TemporaryItems/FlashTmp3/te mp 2010-02-08 18:39:59.463 Adobe AIR Installer[15304:e07] Deleting /Library/Frameworks/Adobe AIR.framework/Versions/Current/Resources/Adobe AIR Updater.app/Contents/Frameworks 2010-02-08 18:39:59.550 Adobe AIR Installer[15304:e07] Copying /Applications/Utilities/Adobe AIR Application Installer.app to /private/var/folders/zz/zzzivhrRnAmviuee+++++++++++/TemporaryItems/FlashTmp4/te mp 2010-02-08 18:39:59.583 Adobe AIR Installer[15304:e07] Deleting /Applications/Utilities/Adobe AIR Application Installer.app 2010-02-08 18:39:59.587 Adobe AIR Installer[15304:e07] Copying /Users/jfinnigan/Desktop/AAI.app/Contents/Frameworks/Adobe AIR.framework/Versions/Current/Adobe AIR Application Installer.app to /Applications/Utilities/Adobe AIR Application Installer.app 2010-02-08 18:39:59.645 Adobe AIR Installer[15304:e07] Registering /Applications/Utilities/Adobe AIR Application Installer.app/Contents/Info.plist 2010-02-08 18:39:59.647 Adobe AIR Installer[15304:e07] Copying /Applications/Utilities/Adobe AIR Application Installer.app/Contents/Info.plist to /private/var/folders/zz/zzzivhrRnAmviuee+++++++++++/TemporaryItems/FlashTmp5/te mp 2010-02-08 18:39:59.813 Adobe AIR Installer[15304:e07] Deleting /Applications/Utilities/Adobe AIR Application Installer.app/Contents/Info.plist 2010-02-08 18:39:59.945 Adobe AIR Installer[15304:e07] chown of /Library/Frameworks/Adobe AIR.framework completed with status 0 2010-02-08 18:39:59.969 Adobe AIR Installer[15304:e07] chown of /Applications/Utilities/Adobe AIR Application Installer.app completed with status 0 2010-02-08 18:40:00.008 Adobe AIR Installer[15304:e07] chown of /Applications/Utilities/Adobe AIR Uninstaller.app completed with status 0 2010-02-08 18:40:00.015 Adobe AIR Installer[15304:e07] Error occurred;
