LaunchDaemon on macOS needs a lot of love

Open michaelherger opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Starting LMS when the system starts fails for several reasons:

  • PrefPane fails to create the LaunchDaemon item to start with
  • LMS doesn't want to start as root, but we don't set a user
  • probably due to the first limitation LMS fails to create folders for logs, prefs, playlists etc., as it can't find the user root's home

Installation likely fails because AuthorizationExecuteWithPrivileges has been deprecated ever since OS X 10.7
