Sorry, but the "server environment" classification hardly guarantees that

those needs to be occasional usage scenarios at best.

I'm not dissing launchd, I'm just saying that I have encountered particular situations where it didn't really seem to be the best option. In particular, there was a situation where I had to start Tomcat and a java application which needed MySQL to be running beforehand.

Couldn't you put your server:8080 into the Sockets dict for TomCat and have MySQL RunAtLoad [definitely not having launchd wait for /var/ mysql/mysql.sock to be accessed....]? Or is one of the application/ TomCat/Java too slow to start up for that?


Cheers,
