Subject: AuthorizationExecuteWithPrivileges error -60008
Searching for "-60008" at apple.com leads me to this list; if there's a
better forum, please let me know what it is.
I have a Carbon application that executes about half a dozen tools with
elevated privileges, using AuthorizationExecuteWithPrivileges.
One of those calls, intermittently, and only on Leopard, fails to run
the tool, instead returning -60008, "An unrecognized internal error
occurred." No console message appears.
The call consistently worked on Tiger (or at least I had no complaints),
and comparing it to known-good calls and setups shows no obvious
differences.
My reports say that the call does work when my application is
re-launched and the AuthorizationExecuteWithPrivileges is attempted again.
I am out of ideas, and of course the "internal error" dampens my hopes
that there is something I can do. I'd appreciate any advice on how to
cure or debug this problem.
