I'm using PackageMaker to install an app update and want to add a preinstall script to delete some files in the
/Applications/#!/bin/bash rm /Applications/...etc.
If I run this script with Terminal using
bash preinstall.shit works fine.
However, when I add it to PackageMaker and run the .mpkg file the script opens in Text Edit but does not run. How do I get it to run but not open?
There are no replies.
