Never had a .eMule-File on OS X. I always thought, that .eMule is just scanned for compatibility-issues with eMule-users switching from Windows to Linux/aMule. Am I wrong here?
At least on Linux, there was also never a .eMule Dir...

it's not a directory, it's a file. It's there becaause lMule had it, xMule had it and aMule has it so ;)
You should have it I guess, allthough I've never used Mac, so maybe not on mac. so I can't help you any further. My guess is permissions problem, seeing from a Linux/PC view... ;)
Gretings!

You're right, ~/.eMule is there under linux, filled with settings, sorry.
I copied it over to my iMac, but it didn't help, same asserts failing and also same (good) behaviour working with sudo (if I downlod server.met, I even get connected! But then aMule crashes :-(. But I think, this has already been reported).
What is left to say, is, that the .eMule of the linux box is from aMule 1.2.6, but I doubt that makes the difference.

Anyway:

* if ~/.eMule is still needed, it should be created if not there. Which is not the case under OS X (neither as normal users nor under sudo).

* When I'm already reporting problems with files: .aMule/preferences.dat is also not beeing created. When I change settings, aMule complains about not finding .aMule/preferences.dat. But when I do a "touch .aMule/preferences.dat" before starting aMule and then change settings, they get saved without a problem,  so the only thing left to do here would be to create an empty preferences.dat when the .aMule dir gets created initially (just a suggestion).

Thanx about those reports :)
Well, you know Mac support is under development yet. In fact, that's why aMule is still in rc stages, because on Mac it's not working yet (as soon as it works on Mac, 2.0.0 final will be out, since on Linux it's mostly fine already).
Again, thanx for the reports and expect aMule working on your Mac ASAP :)))

I'm in no hurry. I can still use my Linux PC to use aMule, if I ever have an urgent need to download something. The main reasen I want to switch amule to OS X is that the PC is so damn loud and my iMac totally silent.
If everything fails, I will use Qemu to install windows or linux on top of my OS X :-) .
thanx for the support anyway.
