How to install 3.1 on OSX Snow Leopard

Hi,

I've downloaded Alfresco-Community-3.2-MacOSXInstall.tar.gz from  http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Download_Alfresco_Community_Network but when its unzipped and un tarred the resulting file does not execute properly on my Mac.

I've googled for this but found nothing.

Am I doing something silly ?  I was expecting it to execute as an installer.

Thanks,

Guy Roberts.

More info;

If I execute it in a command shell I see this

Macintosh:all Guy$ . Alfresco-Community-3.2-MacOS-X-Install
-bash: ????: command not found

or

Macintosh:all Guy$ sh
sh-3.2$ . Alfresco-Community-3.2-MacOS-X-Install
sh: ????: command not found
sh-3.2$

OSX knows that the file is a Mach-O executable

sh-3.2$ file Alfresco-Community-3.2-MacOS-X-Install
Alfresco-Community-3.2-MacOS-X-Install: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures
Alfresco-Community-3.2-MacOS-X-Install (for architecture ppc):   Mach-O executable ppc
Alfresco-Community-3.2-MacOS-X-Install (for architecture i386):   Mach-O executable i386

My OS is 10.6.1,  Snow Leopard.

The format ". <command>" - is trying to run a bash (or sh) command, which is not what you want.

Try ./Alfresco-Community-3.2-MacOS-X-Install instead.

That was it.  Thanks Mike, I look forward to having a play with Alfresco.
