Right - lot's of things appear to have gone missing from the corrupted app.
The original file/folder structure looks like this...
Curriculum Connect.app
Contents
MacOS
revpdpprinter.bundle
Externals
revbrowser.bundle
revdb.bundle
revxml.bundle
revzip.bundle
Database_drivers
dbmysql.bundle
dbodbc.bundle
dbsqlite.bundle
Curriculum Connect (3.2 MB)
Resources (lots of stuff in here)
Info.plist
PkgInfo
but the corrupted copy looks like this...
Curriculum Connect.app
MacOS
Curriculum Connect (2.1 MB)
Info.plist
Looks like a bomb has gone off in there.
Any ideas? I'm supposed to be deploying this to a whole bunch of users first thing next week.

I don't have`10.7 installed to test this out myself. Any ideas on what might be occurring (something to do with file access?) and how I should go about addressing it?
