"Permission denied" when installing on OSX

[jeffThompson]

I'm getting a weird "permission denied" error when trying to install on Eagle 8/OSX.

Can't open '/Applications/EAGLE-6.60/ulp/oshpark-install.ulp'. Permission denied.

The folder is for an older version of Eagle on my system, which is super weird. This thread suggests maybe the path isn't specified clearly enough in the ulp file, and Eagle is defaulting to an old location?

Unfortunately the issue does appear to be similar, but not easily remedied by my scripts. Since the issue is in the #include directive, it runs before any code that can detect the current path.

One solution might simply be to do this

• Create a new BRD file
• Save the BRD in the same location as the install tools
• Run the script again.

From that post, it sounds like the issue is that when working with an unsaved BRD file, it will default to the application folder. Having a BRD in the ULP folder might fix this, causing Eagle to look in the BRD file.
