Hi all,

I have one query and I have not found any documentation on this. I wrote one plist and put it in LaunchDaemons folder. Now, to avoid rebooting the system I use "launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.mycompany.mydaemon.plist" to start the daemon. It starts working properly. When I logout and log in again, it does not get started.

If I reboot then it works fine.

Do I need to modify plist file? or is there any other way to do it? or it behaves in this way only.

Testing machine is iMac 10.4.11 PPC.

Hello Rakesh,

This almost certainly happens because you are staring the daemon in the user's process space. Since this is a system daemon, you should start it in the system namespace and in root's process space. Try using sudo to launch it:

sudo launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.mycompany.mydaemon.plist

This should have the desired effect. Logging out the first time will no longer terminate the daemon process.

Jason
