Looks like your "me" account doesn't have permissions to write to the
/LocalApps directory. There are several approaches to work around this
problem.
You can run the installer.sh command specifying an alternative
installation directory:
installer.sh OmniWeb.pkg ~/Apps
You can log in as "root" and install into /LocalApps:
installer.sh OmniWeb.pkg
You can log in as "root", change the permissions on /LocalApps so that
"me" can write to it (a simple way to do this is to make /LocalApps be
owned by me), and then log back in as "me" and run installer.sh. To
change the ownership of /LocalApps (as root), you'd say:
chown me /LocalApps
Hope this helps!
