Unity crashes after setting project permissions

When I launch Unity 2.6.1 on Snow Leopard, it shows me the project wizard. After Selecting or creating a project it asks me to set permissions of project folder. I enter an administrator name and password, but right after that unity crashes without any error.

Do you know of any work around?

Your bug report is being processed and there will be posted a workaround as soon as one is found. Don't hesitate to post one yourself if you find one.

It seems to be that Unity can not handle case-sensitive file systems (which is a shame). I'm hoping it will be fixed in version 3.

I have the same problem:

Initialize mono 2010-03-30 22:05:31.220 Unity[4715:207] NSDocumentController Info.plist warning: The values of CFBundleTypeRole entries must be 'Editor', 'Viewer', 'None', or 'Shell'. projectPath.empty()

(Filename: /Users/build/builds/unity-26/unity-2.6.x/Projects/../Editor/Src/ProjectWizardUtility.cpp Line: 184)

path.empty () || path[0] != kPathNameSeparator

(Filename: /Users/build/builds/unity-26/unity-2.6.x/Projects/../Editor/Platform/OSX/EditorUtility.mm Line: 421)

Usage: verify_permissions [--is-unity-project] [--fix-permissions] [--uid=USER_ID] PROJECT_PATH [PROJECT_PATH2 [...]] ' is not a valid directory path '

I have same behavior on snow leopard (case sensitive). This is the content of the log in Library/Logs/Unity/Editor.log :

Something that worked for me was to disable the firewall on your mac >system pref>security>and turn off firewall.

I hope this helps for you and everyone else with this problem

I had a weird issue where I was using CreateVisualStudioSolution, and it somehow created a circular symlink to Assets within the Assets folder. Just deleting it seemed to do the trick.
