Hi folks,
I’m new to DEVONthink Pro, and was trying to install the add-ons for 1.3b2.
I’m getting the following messages in my error log, and was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction for resolving them:
9:32:21 AM: ~/Library/Scripts/Applications Failed
9:32:21 AM: ~/Library/Scripts/DEVONthink Pro Failed
Thanks in advance!
Check your write permissions for any of those folders, that is the most likely cause of the problem.
I thought about that, and have repaired my permissions, but am still getting the same error. 
I’m having the same problem, having just upgraded to the new beta of devonthink pro. any guidance much appreciated…
Not that I’m glad to see you having problems as well, but it is nice to know hopefully I’m not crazy LOL
Hi, Guys:
Annard is correct in saying that you have permission errors that don’t allow DTPO to install scripts in the correct locations.
But running Disk Utility’s repair permissions routine isn’t the answer. The problem is an incorrect ownership/permissions setting of the Scripts folder at ~/Library/Scripts/.
In the Finder, go to that location. Select the Scripts folder and press Command-I to open the Info panel.
Near the bottom of the Info panel you will see information about Ownership/Permissions. Click on the Details triangle. Examine permissions. You should have read & write permissions. Change so that you do have read & write access to the Scripts folder, then close the Info panel and go back to DTPO.
Now select Help > Install Add-Ons. Confirm that you want to install the Add-Ons. That should do it.
If not, go back and see if the folders inside the Scripts folder also have bad Ownership/Permissions settings. If so, correct them to read & write and reinstall the Add-Ons.
OK, I got it to work.
For me, the issue wasn’t that the permissions themselves were wrong, but that the ownerships were wrong. For me, ~/Library/Scripts was owned by root, not by me, so I had to make sure that it, and all of its subfolders were owned by me, and now the add-ons install just fine!
Thanks for all the help fellas!
seems to have worked for me too - thanks!
