Hi,
Just for fun! I did a complete uninstall of RC4 repo & client & mongodb to see how smooth is all goes on OSX.
The x64bit mongodb install went well. However I used the default install path for the deadlinedb and deadline repo and when I tried to open monitor/slave, I get an access denied issue.
Looks like permissions aren’t getting set on the top level directories correctly during install. “System” is getting read& write, but “admin” & “everyone” is read-only.
Is this as designed?
Also, how come the deadlinedb.X mongo db files don’t get stored in the …/data/db directory instead they are 1 level higher. Wasn’t expecting that…

I had the same problem with RC5 on OSX when doing a clean install.

This must be a side effect of the installer running as admin now instead of the logged in user. The installer for v6, by design, does not set the permissions on the repository install folder for any OS. They must be adjusted as necessary after the installation has finished. The reason we don’t overwrite permissions in v6 is that we don’t want to blow away permissions that admins may have previously set on those folders.
Funny about that db folder. I don’t think our mongo installation was ever set up to use the ‘db’ folder, just the ‘data’ folder itself. We’ll just tweak our installer builder to no longer create the ‘db’ folder.
