I think this is happening due to launching of GUI (MyApp.app) from daemon. Got following error:
com.apple.launchd    System: This API can only be used by a process running within an Aqua session.
open    spawn_via_launchd() failed, errno=5 label=..... path=/Applications/MyApp.app/Contents/MacOS/MyApp flags=0

How can I resolve it?

Thanks & Regards,
rksinghal

Hi all,

I have an installer which installs an app and a daemon. In postinstall
script, it runs command "open /Applications/MyApp.app" and it works. If
this app is already installed and I install new version, it upgrades
smoothly.  The daemon is keep polling on server for updated version. If it
finds then it downloads the dmg file, mount it and spawns a new process to
run the installer. It works properly with 10.5 and 10.6 but gives error on
10.7. The error is "./postinstall: LSOpenURLsWithRole() failed with error
-10810 for the file /Applications/MyApp.app". In preupgrade script, I kill
both process and remove plist for daemon.

Is this issue due to sandbox or something else? Please let me know if you
know how to resolve it.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
