Install Dolphin with XAMPP on Mac OS 10.7 - cant get files executable

I'm no real unix guru, so I need some advice.

I use a mac with 10.7 and XAMPP. Uploading Dolphin7 is easy and works - untill I try to install.

I get alle files set to read/write using the finder, but unfortunately some files need to be excutable - and the mac finder doesn't support that.

Is there a way to get around this?

Any hint from othe mac users are welcomed.

Don't worry about any permission while you are installing dolphin at localhost.

Just skip all these permission-related steps.

How that?

After I install at localhost I run install/

I set all to read/write, but get stuck at "Next files have inappropriate permissions: flash/modules/global/app/ffmpeg.exe" that I can't set right.

I use MAMP as a local staging server. I would guess that XAMPP would be similar. For Windows I use WAMP and I use CentOS as my production server. I also use Ubuntu and that is a bit of a cat to work on. But I've gotten it to work.

Dolphin installs differently on a Mac, but it is possible.

First of all, you mentioned that you are "uploading" your Dolphin files. Are you uploading it to a server or merely doing a local ftp? If you can ftp, then you can apply permissions via ftp. Use Filezilla, it's free.

Use the terminal:

 

Enter:

cd /path/to/dolphin/flash/modules/global/app

 

After that, enter:

chmod 777 ffmpeg.exe
