    Starting Lighstreaemer automatically on Mac OSX - error

    Hello

    I have a copy of Lightstreamer moderato running on Mac OS X (10.5.5).

    I can start it without problems from the command line using this command
    sudo /Library/Lightstreamer/bin/unix-like/LS.sh background

    However when I set up a LaunchDaemon, so that it starts automatically, I get an error in the LS.out logfile about permission denied. LaunchDaemons are supposed to run as root, so I don't know why this error is occurring. The log file output is shown below. Do you know what the permission denied refers to.

    Code:

    This is the very same error I would see if I tried to start LIghtstreamer from a non-root account. However LaunchDaemons should be running as root, so I don't understand why this error is occurring. Could anyone point me to what permissions I need to change to get rid of this error.

    Many thanks

    Gerard

    In unix/linux the limitation is about opening ports with numbers lower than 1024 for listening.
    I think it's the same for MAC OS X.
    In fact, this limitation should only apply to non-root accounts.
    As long as you are testing, you could just configure Lightstreamer for listening on a higher port number.

    I can't answer about the MAC OS X LaunchDaemons insights; I hope someone else can.
    The Server does nothing in particular to have this permission granted; it just relies on the system.

    Hello Gerard,

    did you add a Socket entry in your plist file as specified on Apple's docs? Please see section "Listening on sockets" here: http://developer.apple.com/library/m...unchdJobs.html

    Best regards,

    Gianluca
