Did you notice conf/launchd.plist in the source tree? That's the
plist that we use.

I'm trying to run a simple CalendarServer daemon on my home network.
If I start it up by hand, all is well. (Great! and thanks for
everyone's hard work in bringing this project to fruition). I'm now
trying to use launchd to start the server when the computer starts.
I'm relying on the man pages for launchd and the tutorial at
MacResearch (http://www.macresearch.org/
tutorial_backups_with_launchd). Here is the property file I'm using:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd
">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>Label</key>
<string>com.metabang.calserver</string>
<key>LowPriorityIO</key>
<true/>
<key>Program</key>
<string>/repository/CalendarServer/run</string>
<key>OnDemand</key>
<false/>
<key>RunAtLoad</key>
<true/>
<key>WorkingDirectory</key>
<string>
/repository/CalendarServer
</string>
<key>RootDirectory</key>
<string>
/repository/CalendarServer
</string>
</dict>
</plist>
I've placed this in /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/
com.metabang.calserver.plist
When the computer starts, I get lots of messages like this :
Jan 27 19:35:23 roberta launchd: com.metabang.calserver: exited
with exit code: 127
Jan 27 19:35:23 roberta launchd: com.metabang.calserver: respawning
too quickly! throttling
Jan 27 19:35:23 roberta launchd: com.metabang.calserver: 8 more
failures without living at least 60 seconds will cause job removal
Jan 27 19:35:23 roberta launchd: com.metabang.calserver: will
restart in 10 seconds
in the system log.
If I invoke launchctl manually via
launchctl load load /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/
com.metabang.calserver.plist
things seem to work fine.
Any advice appreciated...
thanks,
