Start by creating a folder named Scripts, and inside create two bash scripts:

preinstall:

...

#!/bin/bash

LAUNCHD=/Library/LaunchDaemons/edu.caltech.autonomy.foo.plist if [ -e "$LAUNCHD" ]; then launchctl unload -w "$LAUNCHD" fi

postinstall:

...

#!/bin/bash

launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/edu.caltech.autonomy.foo.plist

Then chmod +x preinstall postinstall.

Now in your packagemaker project, expand the component choice that you wish to add scripts for under Contents (NB: not the Distribution), and select the sub-package. Switch to the Scripts tab, and select the folder you created as the Scripts directory (leave Preinstall and Postinstall blank). Save and build.

How can I have PackageMaker place the $LAUNCHD plist into the LaunchAgents folder so that launchctl can run it? _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
