OK, thanks.
I'll try posix_spawn first, as I don't know how to use launchd programatically.
I tried launchd from the command line, but it can't be run from the command line so I suspect exec can't run it either.

As Shawn notes, if you possibly can, let launchd invoke your server.
If you absolutely must launch it yourself (e.g. there is information that needs to be passed from a previous session) then posix_spawn is probably the best way to go.

Hello,
I am using vfork and execlp to launch an audio server to send back audio data via udp ports, but I'm getting unstable behavior.
However, If I manually launch the server from the command line, everything works great.
This leads me to think that using vfork/execlp is causing the server to inherit some unfavorable characteristcs from the launching process.
What's the best way to get a nice clean launch just like launchd would do?
Thanks,
