Thanks, this is a bug in the plugin that has apparently been there since at least 2006. It's a reversed #ifTrue:ifFalse: so the primitive answers errno on success rather than on failure. Fixed in VMConstruction-Plugins-OSProcessPlugin-dtl.35 on SqueakSource, the patch will need to go into the oscog branch of OSProcessPlugin also. Dave

I'm using Pharo 2.0 with #bleedingEdge OSProcess.
