Hello,
We are developing an AIR application and are building installers using Adobe's "side-car" installation code. I was able to do an installation successfully on both Mac and Windows using FlexBuilder 3, but since switching to FlashBuilder 4 I get an error while installing on MacOS. This repros on two Macs, both running Snow Leopard. I have included the contents of log files gathered during the installation below.
When we moved to FlashBuilder 4 we installed the new 4.1 sdk and configured FlashBuilder to use it. The application builds and runs fine on Windows, and it also installs fine on Windows using the side-car installation using exactly the same AIR file. The problem is only on Mac. I think I saw somewhere that exit code 7 has something to do with certificates. The AIR file is signed using a self-signed certificate.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
