I recently downloaded Sage-4.8 for OSX, but when I try to open it I
get the following error message in the terminal:

Last login: Fri Feb 3 18:41:16 on console
'/Applications/Sage-4.8-OSX-64bit-10.6.app/Contents/Resources/sage'/
sage --notebook
dynamic-oit-vapornet-a-1400:~ gabefrieden$ '/Applications/Sage-4.8-
OSX-64bit-10.6.app/Contents/Resources/sage'/sage --notebook
'import site' failed; use -v for traceback
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Applications/Sage-4.8-OSX-64bit-10.6.app/Contents/Resources/
sage/local/bin/sage-notebook", line 3, in <module>
import os, sys, socket
ImportError: No module named os
dynamic-oit-vapornet-a-1400:~ gabefrieden$


What am I doing wrong? If it matters, I'm using OS 10.5.

Thanks,
Gabe

It does matter, since you installed the OS X 10.6 version. Try the
10.5 version instead:
