Why launch sqlite command? Why not link directly to the sqlite library and access the data base directly?
Further, preference files in ~/Library/Preferences are typically XML key-value plist files. Why not use [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults]?

I've a non-sandboxed Cocoa app that launches sqlite command using NSTask to read a preferences file in ~/Library/Preferences. The app works fine when launched using Xcode Build-and-Run, but when the app (after using Xcode Archive and Distribute) is launched independent of Xcode, the app launches but doesn't execute the sqlite command.
I've googled and searched StackOverflow and they suggest I read Authorization Services Programming Guide.
My question is: if the sqlite command is to be executed using the current user (not root) against the current user's ~/Library/Preferences, what do you recommend as an approach besides using Authorization Services?
Thanks.
