having trouble downloading the source.

Post by MacOSX »

Ok, so I'm trying to download the source so I can compile it and use 1.0 SVN. When I try to prepare the SVN *the one from codingmonkeys* I get this:

Code: Select all

/.bash_profile
-bash: /Users/*my username*/.bash_profile: Permission denied
*my*-*name*-ibook-g4:~ *my username*$ -e ~/.bash_profile
-bash: -e: command not found


any ideas?

Check my reply to your pm...

Also, just thought of this, do you know what your terminal shell is?

It *might* possibly be tcsh, and those commands are for bash, which is why the command might not be found.

No it says "-bash" in his shell output... Try running this macosx:

Code: Select all

chmod +x ~/.bash_profile

Code: Select all

chmod 775 ~/.bash_profile
Also I think you may be trying to do this from your output (though I'm not sure...):

Code: Select all

open -e ~/.bash_profile

Ahh, good tips tomhennigan :)

Could he just use sudo too, instead of modifying permissions?

Hey yer that'd work, it's just if he has a permissions problem on the .bash_profile file, then other apps would have problems writing to it, which would cause bugs, so modifying the permissions will prevent these bugs *hopefully* :p.

MacOSX: Try running the checkout using this command:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/bin/svn co svn://svn.adiumx.com/libgaim/trunk adium

I had this trouble. Have you installed Subversion?? I didn't download the one of the Coding Monkeys Website but one a Dev suggested to me. I'll look for the link .

I deleted Subversion on my Mac and installed this. Do the same and it might help. I downloaded Subversion off the Coding Monkeys website originally but it seems this is different

MacOSX had another problem, his command line path was messed up, we solved it in the Need Help? thread.

But cool tip anyways! :D
