Where did you install AlphaCocoa ? Are you running it from a mounted disk image or any special location ?
I just tried again a Developer Checkout and it works for me: the svn console in Alpha first preforms the checkout in a temporary location which is in Alpha's $PREFS folder (~/Library/Preferences/AlphaCocoa-v9.0/tmp/svn/) and then copies it to the application bundle.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Alpha is installed in /Applications/alphaCocoa, no special location
Also for me the Developer Checkout preforms the checkout in the Alpha’s $PREFS folder (~/Library/Preferences/AlphaCocoa-v9.0/tmp/svn/)
It seems to die when it tries to delete the copy in /private/var/folder..

Weird, /private/var/folder.. is not something coming from Alpha.
Alpha does its job in $PREFS/tmp/svn and deletes the temporary folder only when it quits (this is done in the quitHook).
Could it be an issue with your svn ? You could try a checkout from a Terminal window (in your Documents folder for instance):
svn co https://svn.code.sf.net/p/alphacocoa/code/Current/Libraries/AlphaTcl

Aha, thank you for the attachment. Now I have something concrete to work with because it designates the Tcl trace attached to the svnRun(done) variable.

After looking at your attachment, I think I have a vague idea of what is going wrong. Your error log mentions a path which looks like /private/var/folders/....../AppTranslocation/..... (I have added intermediate dots for clarity). This has to do with a new feature introduced in Sierra (Mac OS X 10.12) and known as AppTranslocation. Here are the release notes: << Starting in OS X v10.12, you can no longer provide external code or data alongside your code-signed app in a zip archive or unsigned disk image. An app distributed outside the Mac App Store runs from a randomized path when it is launched and so cannot access such external resources.>>
I don't really understand all the implications at the moment but I have to look in that direction.

It works for me. Are you logged with admin rights ? Do you have write permission on this

the svn works, no problem with that.
In the attachment the complete error message

Aha, thank you for the attachment. Now I have something concrete to work with because it designates the Tcl trace attached to the
svnRun(done)variable.Is this error still present ? It may have been fixed along with the fix of Ticket #87.
No, I keep getting always the same error.

Can we close this ticket ?

#71The problem is still there, sorry for claiming it was over. (Alpha 9.0b2 OSX Sierra 10.12.4)
I think it is related to the global variable $HOME.
In the tcl shell I get
«» puts $HOME
/private/var/folders/../AppTranslocation/../Alpha.app/Contents/Resources/Libraries/AlphaTcl
