Hello James, If you allow, some questions for better understanding your context. > Here’s what my program does: Which program?

So, do you install the plist yourself, beforehand, or is this done by aforementioned "program"? Could you show us that plist? > 2) launchctl load -S Background > /Library/LaunchAgents/com.qrecall.scheduler.plist > (successful) I guess this is done by the "program". Is it run by a logged in user (in the GUI) and running as that user? > 3) launchctl start com.qrecall.scheduler > (exits with status 1) > > And the scheduler process is NOT started.

For any user that logs in? Or for a specific user only? More generally, could you describe what exactly you want to achieve, the workflow you are considering? We could then proceed with some trials at home. ;-) > Now ... I know what you're going to say: "Dude! You should be using the new > launchctl commands introduced in 10.10!" > > Tried that.

Terribly outdated documentation on developer’s site, no source code anymore… A bit as if users on other unix platforms would suddenly have to guess how the init mechanism is working.
