Okay, let's see if I can explain this well enough for it to make sense. :-)
A while back I posted a message about setting limitations under user accounts in Mac OS X, and how Rev standalones do not let you check them as allowable applications to run (this is reported as bug #2232, btw). You can check them, but it doesn't stick. So limited users can't run them. You can fix this by making an additional entry in the info.plist file in the standalone bundle. I've got this much working fine. The problem now is under Panther only. My standalone is installed to the Applications folder. When logged in with an admin account, it works as expected. But when I log in with a limited account, if I try to launch the app, it flashes in the dock for a split second, I see the zooming effect of the icon as if it's trying to run, but then it dies. If I copy the app to the limited user's directory, it runs as expected. So something in the security settings is preventing the app from running normally, at least I'm guessing that's the case. But all other applications run as expected when logged in with the limited user. I've tried playing with the security and permissions settings on my app's folder, but can't quite seem to get the right combination of settings. So, has anyone else seen this behavior? Is there a workaround for it? Remember that this only happens in Panther (10.3.5). If I set up a limited user in Jaguar (10.2.8) with the same settings, the application runs as expected. Very weird! Any ideas would be most appreciated. Thanks, Chris Sheffield Software Development Read Naturally --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
