Am Unable to install Plone 5.0.8 on my MacOS High Sierra (10.13.3)

I'm a very new user of Plone, an i want to build my own Website.

I'm trying to install Plone 5.0.8 on MacOS 10.13.3, using the Python 2.7 that come along with the OS. Using Plone-5.0.8-UnifiedInstaller-r1. Already had XCode. Updated and downloaded Command Line Tools for Xcode 9.2 MacOS 10.13.

Tried "./install.sh" in Terminal from installer folder and got:

Continue with the command line:

install.sh standalone \
--target="/Users/felipelukavei/Plone"  

1) Yes
2) No

./preflight: line 1707: config.log: Permission denied
./preflight: line 1717: config.log: Permission denied

Unable to run preflight check. Basic build tools are missing.
You may get more information about what went wrong by running
sh ./preflight
Aborting installation.

Then I'd run "sudo sh ./preflight" and got something similar to the following, but now I have installed some of the requirements using homebrew.

I have installed OpenSSL, and made like everything that was listed on the 5 first pages on Google for tags like ssl, headers, mac os, Plone, OpenSSL. After that, I realized that OpenSSL install has no impact on the outcoming since even uninstalled the OpenSSL check is Ok (looks like High Sierra already have it), but ssl.h I never got.

I still have in my terminal back commands:

ln -s ../opt/openssl/include/openssl
echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/openssl/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile
env LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib" CFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include"

The result from "find /usr -iname "ssl.h*"" is:

    find: /usr/sbin/authserver: Permission denied
    /usr/local/include/openssl/ssl.h
    /usr/local/Cellar/openssl/1.0.2n/include/openssl/ssl.h
    /usr/local/share/doc/openssl/html/man7/ssl.html

The result from "which openssl" is:

/usr/local/opt/openssl/bin/openssl

Linking openssl no longer works and looks like my problem is not related to OpenSSL package itself, but with something I have no idea.

Using sudo ./install.sh gives me different output, but since Plone documentation [link] says "The resulting installation is self-contained, does not touch system files, and is safe to play with (no root/sudoing is needed)", thought I should not force it. Looks like sudo get me root install and the output follows:

Testing /usr/bin/python2.7 for Zope/Plone requirements....

/usr/bin/python2.7 looks OK. We will use it.

Root install method chosen. Will install for use by users:

  ZEO & Client Daemons:      plone_daemon
  Code Resources & buildout: plone_buildout

Detailed installation log being written to /Users/felipelukavei/Downloads/Plone-5.0.8-UnifiedInstaller-r1/install.log
Installing Plone 5.0.8 at /Applications/Plone

We do not know how to add users and groups in this environment. This is no problem if the required users and group already exist.

id: plone_daemon: no such user
id for plone_daemon returned
id: plone_daemon: no such user

Expected to find uid for plone_daemon and gid for plone_group but did not.

Please use your system tools to create/edit required users and group, then try again.

Thanks for helping.

The install.log file is probably a leftover from a "sudo" install attempt. Since it's owned by root, a non-sudo install can't overwrite it. Try deleting install.log. You'll need to use sudo to do it: "sudo rm install.log".

We probably need to make the Unified Installer refuse to install as root (via sudo) on OS X. OS X is an OK development environment, but no longer a useful production environment (in my perhaps not-so-humble opinion).
