There's not much info on launchd usage so I thought I'd post this problem
here.
I'm trying to setup UW-IMAP ipop3d pop mail server through launchd. I
created the .plist below by modifying one of the Apple .plist files in
/System/Library/LaunchDaemons, and studying the launchd.plist man page.
I placed the file in /Library/LaunchDaemons and ran launchctl load, but get
the following error:
[xserve1:~] randy% sudo launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons
com.systame.ipop3d: Invalid argument
The Label property is supposed to be just a unique string (meaning no other
launchd jobs have the same name), which it is. Anyone know what this error
means?
