[QUOTE][u]Quote by: pteeter[/u][p]I think posting my diff files will help A LOT.

Until I can get the files posted on AFP548.com, try this:

[url]http://paulteeter.net/pjt/CS4-files.zip[/url]

Login is afp548, password is afp548.

Pull the zip archive down and find these files:

Adobe AIR with CS4-diff.txt
Adobe Acrobat 9 CS4-diff.txt
Adobe Bridge CS4-diff.txt
Adobe Device Central CS4-diff.txt
Adobe Dreamweaver CS4-diff.txt
Adobe Extension Manager CS4-diff.txt
Adobe Fireworks CS4-diff.txt
Adobe Flash CS4-diff.txt
Adobe Fonts with CS4-diff.txt
Adobe Illustrator CS4-diff.txt
Adobe InDesign CS4-diff.txt
Adobe Media Encoder CS4-diff.txt
Adobe Media Player with CS4-diff.txt
Adobe Photoshop CS4-diff.txt
Adobe Shared Files CS4-diff.txt
CS4-update1-diff.txt
CS4-update1-preflight.sh
[/quote]

This will help clarify steps 4-5 I think.

Step 6 works kind of like this.

sudo pkgGen /path/to/diff/file/diff.txt /path/to/created/pkg/root/pkg-root

pkgGen will parse the contents of the diff.txt file and copy the heirarchy of necessary files, preserving ownership/permissions/etc, into the specified pkg-root folder.

Make sense?

The postflight script and diff file for the 1st CS4 update is also included. I’m pretty sure more CS4 updates have come out since I re-packaged that group of updates. I’m without a development environment at the moment so can’t really investigate updating the CS4 Updater package.

I hope this helpful. Please reply with more questions if you have them.

pteeter, thanks so much for your continued help, I really appreciate it. I will try this in a few, hopefully get different results.

I am well behind both of you guys. I really don’t care what method I use, I just can’t get a working package for CS4. Right now I am just trying Photoshop, and can’t get a working pkg.

I have tried both of your methods. With the loggen route I got licensing errors I could not recover from. Tried again, and got the same problems. Today I tried the lanrev method, and it encounters errors when I tried to install the straight .pkg, and also when I used the iceberg route. I did not do any updates just used the lanrev snapshot method.

Any replies, private messages, or e-mails would be greatly appreciated.

sincerely,
adobe cs confused ;
