Unfortunately, Mac OS X installer created from the Mac OS X build target at Build>Build Installers>Build Targets do not support running in silent and console modes. The installer created for Mac OS X is an app bundle which does not take command line parameters. To create installers that can run in console mode on Mac, you can use the Unix(All) or UNIX_with_VM build targets at Build>Build Installers>Build Targets. The installers created from these UNIX build targets would be .bin file that can be run in both silent and console mode. However, I also wanted to let you know that there are some known issues with UNIX installer running on Mac. Workaround to install in Silent Mode an application in Mac OS X 1. Create a conventional installer of your application for Mac OS X. 2. Edit the app bundle of your installer, edit the Info.plist of your installer: Go to the folder: installer.app/Contents, if you are using Finder press Ctrl-Mouse click and select “Show Package Contents”, if you are using a Terminal session type: cd installer.app/Contents Edit the Info.plist and change the parameter: “lax.installer.macosx.ui.default” from GUI to SILENT. 3. Now you have an installer that run in silent mode by default. 4. Copy the files of properties in the same folder of the installer of your application (i.e. installer.app). You can use a file called “installer.properties” or [installername].properties. 5. How to invoke the installer? Open a Terminal session cd installer.app/Contents/MacOS run the installer: ./installer Note: You don't need creates a UNIX installer to install in Silent Mode an application in the Mac OS X. Marroyo

For now, while Flexera fix this problem, I'm ignoring the "Non-Fatal Errors", using the following rules: Sequence - Post-Install – Panel: Install Complete: Install Complete Rule: Compare InstallAnywhere Variables: $INSTALL_SUCCESS$ does not equal FATAL_ERROR Sequence - Post-Install – Panel: Install Failed: Install Complete Rule: Compare InstallAnywhere Variables: $INSTALL_SUCCESS$ equal FATAL_ERROR Marroyo

Try to run this first: defaults write com.apple.dock workspaces-auto-swoosh - boolean YES (any "defaults write com.apple.dock" command) and then: killall Dock Marroyo

When installing my application in Mac OS X Mavericks/Yosemite, the installer produced a nonFatalError in the installation log: Install JRE: /Applications/MyApp/jre Status: ERROR Additional Notes: ERROR - JRE Source does not exist What does this message mean? This not happens in Windows and Linux. My configuration is: JVM Settings - Installer Settings: valid VM list 1.7+ Install Bundled / Downloaded Virtual Machine - VM Install Folder: User Install Folder / jre Build - Mac OS X - with VM - Don't search for VM; use bundled VM: Oracle JRE 1.7.0_60 Mac Thanks, Marroyo
