Can't install subversion on Mountain Lion OSX - macos

I downloaded the subversion installer in the "Community Binaries" at collabnet:
http://www.collab.net/downloads/subversion#tab-3. When I try to install it, I go through Introduction, Read Me, and License. When I get to Destination Select, "Install for all users of this computer" is greyed out. I can not proceed during this point. Does anyone know why?

Mountain Lion does have Subversion version 1.6.18 available from Apple. However, it's a bit convoluted to get it:
Download Xcode from the Mac OS X App Store (Free program)
Select the Menu item Xcode->Preferences...
Select the "Downloads" section.
Choose Command Line Tools and click on the Install button.
After that, the Subversion command line client will be available. The svnserve server is also included. Unfortunately, the mod_dav.so and mod_dav_svn.so files needed for running Subversion server via Apache https are no longer included. I think they might be included in Mac OS X Server, but that's a $20 purchase.
Hope this helps. It's not version 1.7.x, but it's much easier to get working than the old community binary version which I don't believe works in Mountain Lion (and is also version 1.6.18)

If you don't need Xcode, you can download the Developer Command Line Tools from https://developer.apple.com/downloads/index.action directly, saving yourself a tonne of disk space and time...

Apparently it's not been updated is the message on open.Collab.net...
Date 2011-12-20 04:44:22 PST
Message The community volunteer who provides the binary on our site has not updated it for Lion or SVN 1.7. All of the Mac packaging tools, like MacPorts and HomeBrew have updated and you can get it there. There is also a listing of places to get them here: http://subversion.ap​ache.org/packages.ht​ml#osx

Xcode XIP = non installed?

During an attempt to reinstall Xcode9 from scratch I decided to use the XIP file download from the developer.apple.com website.
I opened the archive, moved it to the Application folder and launched it. No problem, aside from the issues I was trying to solve that are still there ...
Now I go to the App Store and I see that Xcode results as non-installed.
What should I do?
I am running it on a MacBook Pro 15" from 2016 with macOS 10.12.6.
Yes you can use multiple version all together. just be carefull when installing after download, it will prompt to replace. "do not replace" but "Keep both versions". I am also using 4 different versions for compatibility checks. :)

Glassfish v4.0 cannot work on Mac OSX 10.6.8 + JDK 7.0 U40

I had been using 2010 Macbook Pro for a while and had updated the Mac OSX to the latest version, and I had been suffering the slow speed for a long time. So last night I googled and do some cleanup , such as fix disk permissions, but the Mac was still slow. And someone suggest to re-install MacOSX.
I was thinking it was the new version of Mac OSX's problem, I had the same kind of problems happen on the 1st version IPad either.
After I reinstalled, the computer became much more faster. But I encountered the following problems:
JDK 7 DMG does not support OSX 10.6.8, but ONLY OSX 10.7+
Github official client does not support OSX 10.7+
Gooooooogled again and again, to solve the 1st problem, there are mainly to suggestions:
A. Using PackageMaker to remove the OSX version condition.
B. Using a tool Pacifist to open the pkg file inside the DMG file downloaded from official.
Since I have PackageMaker installed on Mac OSX, so I choosed A.
Open it with PackageMaker, remove the limitation, and build it again, I installed with the new pkg file successfully at:
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_40.jdk/Contents/Home
And then set JAVA_HOME on ~/.bash_profile.
Then I download the glassfish 4.0 multi-language version, unzipped, and start-domain successfully. and finally the problem killed me for now.
After glassfish v4 started, I try to login into web console at:
http://localhost:4848
then glassfish server instance "dies", the java process of glassfish is still there, but without any response, the web console starting icon keeps rolling all the time. And there are no error logs created, and the "generated" directory is not generated.
2013-10-15 14:05:20.928 java[797:903] * NSInvocation: warning: object 0x1083c8390 of class 'ThreadUtilities' does not implement methodSignatureForSelector: -- trouble ahead

Command start-domain failed.
That is the 1st problem.
The 2nd problem is about github. Since github official does not support OSX 10.6.8, I found an old installer with version 1.0.3. I installed this version, with one ONLY problem for now, I cannot login into github with username and password,no error responses, just no responding, I suffered this once I was on Windows. But I can work with clicking the "Clone into Desktop" button on github.com.
Can someone help me out? I am working on JDK7 based projects.
Why everybody is leaving Snow Leopard, and does not support it anymore, but old Mac computers should be die without working software after 2~3 years, just 2~3 years. And OS upgrade to nex t level will DOWNGrade the performance. Why this things happen?
Is it the oracle from god?
I had the same error (NSInvocation...), on my 2006 Macbook Pro (OS X 10.6.8), onto which I had installed JDK7 to develop a Java/GWT application in Eclipse Kepler. After searching around, I learned that one possible solution was to downgrade to JDK 1.7.0u25 (instead of update 40 or higher), so I installed that version alongside 1.7.0u45 (which I already had), and that fixed the problem. So I would recommend installing that version of the JDK and see if that fixes your problem.

Upgrading to Mac OS Lion as Developer

I'm planning to buy Mac OS Lion, but I would like to know some informations.
- Are Snow Leopard's apps compatible with Lion?
- Are apps compiled with Xcode for Lion compatible with Snow Leopard? What if these app uses popovers/fullscreen which are features of Lion?
xCode requires a full download (the full 5*ish GB) and if you are a Java guy you will have to re download Java as it is not included (this was my experience when opening eclipse for the first time in Lion).
Some of Snow leopards apps are compatible, not all (ppc apps will not work). It is probably best to check with the software vendor first.
Another thing your Library folder disappears on an upgrade among some others where Lion is trying to 'Protect' its users. To get round this simply enter the command into terminal. (replace username with your username and foldertoreveal with the hidden foldername)
chflags nohidden /Users/Username/FolderToReveal
The upgrade process other wise has been fine. For reference I am an Obj C /C++ /C and Java developer. Hope this helps
Also will link you to this post about Developing Java on Lion:
Stack Overflow post on Java in Lion
A very good list of compatible applications is available at RoaringApps. I highly recommend checking for your favorite editors/IDEs/etc there.
Of note:
TextMate: "Works fine," but there are some issues
BBEdit: "Works fine"
iTerm2: "Works fine" (minor interface bugs)
And of course, Apple's tools require an upgrade to XCode 4.1.
As far as developing with the new APIs in Lion, you can explicitly target a specific version of OS X for compatibility. When building for 10.6, those new APIs will not be exposed during compilation and you will get warnings about unrecognized selectors if you try to use them.
So far what I've noticed :
- make sure you install XCode 4.1 (not the same as 4.0, it's a free separate download), which fixes the Python includes mess
- go to terminal and type "java", this will trigger the download of the Java runtime
But I chose to avoid the burden of fixing all libs by going with a clean install of Lion (from a USB key)
cvs stopped working for me, but downloading Xcode seemed like an unnecessarily heavyweight fix. Adding /Developer/usr/bin to my PATH fixed it for me.

iphone OS 3.1.3 requires snow leopard upgrade

itunes asked me to upgrade my iphone's OS to 3.1.3, so I complied naively.
then xcode told me that the latest iphone OS version it could support was 3.1.2. So I went to download a new version from https://developer.apple.com/iphone/index.action#downloads, xcode 3.2.2 with iphone SDK.
but when i went to install that, i was told I needed snow leopard 10.6.2 or later. so I'm just making sure that I am not misinterpreting anything when I say that, given that it is impossible to downgrade iphone OS versions without jailbreaking, I need to install a new version of the OS just so I can resume testing apps on my iphone?
given that it is impossible to
downgrade iphone OS versions without
jailbreaking
I'm not sure that's correct. I've done it before on ipods. If you go to ~/Library/iTunes, there's a few folders in there. Look through the folders for files with an "ipsw" file extension. These are the software upgrades. When you perform an upgrade, the upgrade file is saved here. So find the one you want to "downgrade" to. If you can't find it you may be able to google for it. In any case find the appropriate file. Then in iTunes if you option-click "Check for Update" it asks you to choose the file you want to use to perform the update instead of running the update check normally... so just select the ipsw file. That should "downgrade" you... I think. As I mentioned I did it a few years ago on an ipod.

Where can I find a version of Xcode 3 that will run on Mac OS X 10.5?

I need to install Xcode 3 on my MacBook Pro (so I can install Haskell Platform). I can't upgrade the MBP to Snow Leopard (10.6), but the Xcode 3 available for download from http://developer.apple.com/mac/ requires 10.6. Is there a version of Xcode 3 that will work with Mac OS X 10.5.8? Where do I find it?
My MacBook Pro was provided by my employer (which is why I can't upgrade to Snow Leopard), so I don't have access to the discs that came with it.
(Note, I moved this from https://superuser.com/questions/112629/where-can-i-find-a-version-of-xcode-3-that-will-run-on-mac-os-x-10-5/112630#112630 after noticing I had accidentally posted it there.)
Now, the latest version which would work with 10.5.8 seems to be 3.1.4. It is really hard to find on the Apple site. After logging in, you may be able to access this page: http://connect.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MemberSite.woa/wo/5.1.17.2.1.3.3.1.0.1.1.0.3.3.3.3.1
Search for "3.1.4", or try this direct link: http://adcdownload.apple.com/Developer_Tools/xcode_3.1.4_developer_tools/xcode314_2809_developerdvd.dmg
You have to login to get to the link, so I don't think I can send you a direct link.
Does this work for you?

It is tough to find on the site, but here's how:
go to http://developer.apple.com
Click "Resources" at the top of the page
Under OSX click "Downloads"
Uncheck all options but Developer Tools and type "XCode" into the search bar. You will find all versions under this search.
