#20887: Cannot install expat "permission denied" (MacPorts --with-no-root- privileges) ----------------------------------------+----------------------------------- Reporter: jonthn+macports@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.8.0 Keywords: | Port: ----------------------------------------+----------------------------------- Today I installed Snow Leopard and fetch the source file of MacPorts 1.8.0. In that case I created a fresh new user called "build" with no Admin rights. Configured MacPorts like this : {{{ ./configure --prefix=$HOME/package --with-universal_archs="x86_64 i386" --with-no-root-privileges }}} And when I try to install expat I got this error : {{{ ---> Installing expat @2.0.1_0+universal DEBUG: Executing org.macports.install (expat) DEBUG: installing file: /Users/build/package/var/macports/software/expat/2.0.1_0+universal/Users/build/package/bin/xmlwf DEBUG: installing file: /Users/build/package/var/macports/software/expat/2.0.1_0+universal/Users/build/package/include/expat.h DEBUG: installing file: /Users/build/package/var/macports/software/expat/2.0.1_0+universal/Users/build/package/include/expat_external.h DEBUG: installing link: /Users/build/package/var/macports/software/expat/2.0.1_0+universal/Users/build/package/lib/libexpat.0.dylib DEBUG: installing file: /Users/build/package/var/macports/software/expat/2.0.1_0+universal/Users/build/package/lib/libexpat.1.5.2.dylib DEBUG: installing link: /Users/build/package/var/macports/software/expat/2.0.1_0+universal/Users/build/package/lib/libexpat.1.dylib DEBUG: installing file: /Users/build/package/var/macports/software/expat/2.0.1_0+universal/Users/build/package/lib/libexpat.a DEBUG: installing link: /Users/build/package/var/macports/software/expat/2.0.1_0+universal/Users/build/package/lib/libexpat.dylib DEBUG: installing file: /Users/build/package/var/macports/software/expat/2.0.1_0+universal/Users/build/package/lib/libexpat.la DEBUG: installing file: /Users/build/package/var/macports/software/expat/2.0.1_0+universal/Users/build/package/share/doc/expat-2.0.1/COPYING DEBUG: installing file: /Users/build/package/var/macports/software/expat/2.0.1_0+universal/Users/build/package/share/doc/expat-2.0.1/Changes DEBUG: installing file: /Users/build/package/var/macports/software/expat/2.0.1_0+universal/Users/build/package/share/doc/expat-2.0.1/README DEBUG: installing file: /Users/build/package/var/macports/software/expat/2.0.1_0+universal/Users/build/package/share/doc/expat-2.0.1/html/expat.png DEBUG: installing file: /Users/build/package/var/macports/software/expat/2.0.1_0+universal/Users/build/package/share/doc/expat-2.0.1/html/reference.html DEBUG: installing file: /Users/build/package/var/macports/software/expat/2.0.1_0+universal/Users/build/package/share/doc/expat-2.0.1/html/style.css DEBUG: installing file: /Users/build/package/var/macports/software/expat/2.0.1_0+universal/Users/build/package/share/doc/expat-2.0.1/html /valid-xhtml10.png DEBUG: installing file: /Users/build/package/var/macports/software/expat/2.0.1_0+universal/Users/build/package/share/doc/expat-2.0.1/html/xmlwf.1 DEBUG: installing file: /Users/build/package/var/macports/software/expat/2.0.1_0+universal/Users/build/package/share/doc/expat-2.0.1/html/xmlwf.sgml DEBUG: installing file: /Users/build/package/var/macports/software/expat/2.0.1_0+universal/Users/build/package/share/man/man1/xmlwf.1.gz Error: Target org.macports.install returned: could not set attributes of "/Users/build/package/var/macports/software/expat/2.0.1_0+universal/Users/build/package/share/man/man1/xmlwf.1.gz": permission denied DEBUG: Backtrace: could not set attributes of "/Users/build/package/var/macports/software/expat/2.0.1_0+universal/Users/build/package/share/man/man1/xmlwf.1.gz": permission denied while executing "file attributes $dst_element -group staff -owner build -permissions 00444 -readonly 0 -creator {} -type {} -hidden 0 -rsrclength 0" ("eval" body line 1) invoked from within "eval file attributes {$dst_element} [file attributes $src_element]" (procedure "install_element" line 11) invoked from within "install_element $src_element $dst_element" (procedure "directory_dig" line 32) invoked from within "directory_dig $rootdir $name $regref [file join $cwd $name]" (procedure "directory_dig" line 39) invoked from within "directory_dig $rootdir $name $regref [file join $cwd $name]" (procedure "directory_dig" line 39) invoked from within "directory_dig $rootdir $name $regref [file join $cwd $name]" (procedure "directory_dig" line 39) invoked from within "directory_dig $rootdir $name $regref [file join $cwd $name]" (procedure "directory_dig" line 39) invoked from within "directory_dig $rootdir $name $regref [file join $cwd $name]" (procedure "directory_dig" line 39) invoked from within "directory_dig $rootdir $name $regref [file join $cwd $name]" (procedure "directory_dig" line 39) invoked from within "directory_dig ${destroot} ${destroot} ${regref}" (procedure "portinstall::install_main" line 8) invoked from within "$procedure $targetname" Warning: the following items did not execute (for expat): org.macports.activate org.macports.install }}} -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/20887> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

What I've done is transformed the one-liner for setting up attributes to one-line for each attribute. It's most probably an ugly patch but perhaps it'll help you make something better. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/20887#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

It does not occur in my testing on Tiger or Leopard, though a different issue does: #20896. Regarding the patch Jonathan submitted above, I would very much like to first know what revision caused the problem, since this all used to work in MacPorts 1.7.1. Then, once we see what change caused the issue, we can think about how best to solve it. The script I attached to [http://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/macports- users/2009-September/016471.html this message] could help test for the issue. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/20887#comment:4> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
