安装在自制错误

尝试安装 rvm 和 ruby 1.9.2

我已经安装了自制程序和 git,但无法获得完整的更新,因为我不断收到许可错误。重新安装 Snow Leopard 并修复权限。

现在发生了这种事。

$酿酒安装 wget

错误: 无法写入/usr/local/Cellar

How did you install Homebrew? Their official installation instructions include running a ruby script. That should take care of the permission issues for you.

If you don't want to run a script, there is a section of that page called "Installing to /usr/local for Developers" that explains the change in permissions needed for the /usr/local directory.

sudo chown -R $USER /usr/local

You'll have to give yourself ownership of /usr/local/ using that line right there. I had to do this myself after using the ruby one-liner at the top of the official docs to install Homebrew. Worked like a charm for me. It ought to be the only time you'll ever need to sudo with Homebrew.

I'm not sure if the ruby one-liner does this. If it did, then something else on my system took control of /usr/local since.

Edit: I completely missed this, but @samvermette didn't (see replies to my answer): if you run this command above and have something installed via homebrew that requires special user permissions, like mysql, make sure to give those permissions back (as the above command gives recursive ownership to everything inside /usr/local to you ($USER). In the case of mysql, it's…

sudo chown -RL mysql:mysql /usr/local/mysql/data

I had this issue after upgrading to Mavericks, and this page was the top search result when googling the error message. I continued searching and found this answer on stack overflow.com. Put concisely, it is:

sudo chmod a+w /usr/local/Cellar

This fixed the issue for me, and as it only changes permissions for the specific path referenced in the error message, seemed unlikely to have negative side effects with other installations.

I'm putting this answer here for anyone else who may find this page first like I did. However, credit should go to jdi.

EDIT: As mentioned in the comments it's a bad idea to use sudo with homebrew, so don't use the following answer!


You can also prevent this error if you execute the command with sudo:

$ sudo brew install wget

But take care of using sudo because you can make a lot of mistakes.

I suggest ensuring that the current user is a member of the group that owns /usr/local. I believe by default, that group is wheel. To make yourself a member of that group:

$ sudo dscl . append /Groups/wheel GroupMembership $USER

Although something of an inelegant hammer, it has the intended effect - enabling access to items in /usr/local that are intended only for use (read/write) by elevated members. This approach has benefits of the other above because it takes advantage of the group memberships, enabling multiple (authorized) users on the system to use homebrew.

You can allow only Admin users writing into /usr/local/?

chgrp -R admin /usr/local
chmod -R g+w /usr/local
chgrp -R admin /Library/Caches/Homebrew
chmod -R g+w /Library/Caches/Homebrew

Since that each user who belongs to Admin group, will be able to install new dependencies.

uninstall and re install HomeBrew that will do the trick

On High Sierra you need the following command cause chown will not work:

sudo chown -R $(whoami) $(brew --prefix)/*
