Modified plist file for my system, It would not run with the word ‘foreground’ in the startup string. I also took out the user/group statements
appears to be working ok now? see outputs below the plist. Thanks for the help getting all the moving parts in place folks. Maybe this can be of help to others. The command ran fine from the command line, "sudo /opt/local/sbin/amavisd -c /opt/local/etc/amavisd.conf debug-sa” So I knew it worked - just had to tweek the plist so now it auto starts with a reboot. ================ <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd";> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>Label</key> <string>local.amavisd</string> <key>ProgramArguments</key> <array> <string>/opt/local/sbin/amavisd</string> <string>-c</string> <string>/opt/local/etc/amavisd.conf</string> <string>debug-sa</string> </array> <key>KeepAlive</key> <true/> </dict> </plist> =========================== zeus:LaunchDaemons robert$ ps -U _amavisd PID TTY TIME CMD 5418 ?? 0:02.47 /opt/local/sbin/amavisd (master) 5421 ?? 0:00.01 /opt/local/sbin/amavisd (virgin child) 5422 ?? 0:00.01 /opt/local/sbin/amavisd (virgin child) zeus:LaunchDaemons robert$ sudo lsof -i TCP:10024 COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME perl5.22 5418 _amavisd 5u IPv4 0xc9ee39c1cd24ea31 0t0 TCP localhost:10024 (LISTEN) perl5.22 5418 _amavisd 6u IPv6 0xc9ee39c1bcd5e5e1 0t0 TCP localhost:10024 (LISTEN) perl5.22 5421 _amavisd 5u IPv4 0xc9ee39c1cd24ea31 0t0 TCP localhost:10024 (LISTEN) perl5.22 5421 _amavisd 6u IPv6 0xc9ee39c1bcd5e5e1 0t0 TCP localhost:10024 (LISTEN) perl5.22 5422 _amavisd 5u IPv4 0xc9ee39c1cd24ea31 0t0 TCP localhost:10024 (LISTEN) perl5.22 5422 _amavisd 6u IPv6 0xc9ee39c1bcd5e5e1 0t0 TCP localhost:10024 (LISTEN) Robert Chalmers [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>.au Quantum Radio: http://tinyurl.com/lwwddov Mac mini 6.2 - 2012, Intel Core i7,2.3 GHz, Memory:16 GB.
