I recently tried to install XCode 3.2.6 together with iOS SDK on my Snow Leopard machine, after initial steps, the installation failed saying an unknown error occurred. I tried lots of solutions, but none of them worked, except this silly one: Change computer's date to: January, 1st, 2012
Very silly idea, but it solved my problem and XCode is currently being installed as I'm writing this post...

ReplyDeleteWow.. I was about to give up. I somehow landed on your page. Thanks a lot for sharing. I am so happy to see it working.
ReplyDeletei am using mac 10.6.7 on vmware windows. Your solution works for me, after hours research solution for "unknown error"
ReplyDeleteIt worked perfectly for me too, in a virtualized OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8, under VirtualBox 4.2.4.
ReplyDeleteFunny that it worked differently in 2 different installation on PC:
- in one case I had to set the date to 1/1/2012 (Pentium DualCore, 2GB, Win7-32bit);
- in another case I didn't need to change it (Intel DualCoreQuad, 5GB, Win7-64bit).

ReplyDeleteIt doesn't make any sense but... it worked for me too. Thank you very much, you saved me a lot of Googling xD.
ReplyDeleteIt's because the certificate installed with the package has expired.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, for me, the install gets to 80% then fails... more research I guess.
You are a genius. Salute :P
ReplyDeletePure Awesomeness
