Hi Robby, Actually its not a problem with Dr Scheme. Its something to do with Vista/Windows 7. One cannot copy or create a folder in Library. We can add a folder but cannot create a folder in a library. Check this png I have attached. I have created a library called HP in Libraries. I am also new to Windows 7 but I know that you cannot create a directory there. Ask that guy to change the location of the installation. It should work fine. Thanks Hari

I recommend you try the tlab machines if your own machine doesn't let you write to your own directories (this sure seems like a strange thing to disallow and will likely break many applications, but I don't know too much about this). You might try creating a new user and then seeing if things work when using that user. (Give the new user administrator access but don't otherwise change any default settings) Robby On Thu, Jan 7, 2010 at 7:56 PM, Justin Cohler <justincohler2008 at u.northwestern.edu> wrote: > Hi Professor, > I've been working on correctly installing DrScheme's language, however, I'm > having continuing problems. ?It gives the following error: > make-directory: cannot make directory: /Users/justincohler/Library/PLT > Scheme/ (Permission denied; errno=13) > I tried changing the security on my computer, however, I have had no luck. > ?Any ideas? ?Thanks, > Justin?Cohler > -- > Justin F.
