HI Jen,
Thanks for the initial reply.
I've tried to unload my launch daemon from shell , it is unloading
without any error.
*$ sudo lauchctl unload -w
/Library/LaunchDaemon/com.mycompany.mydaemon.plist*
When i executed lauchctl without sudo , i got the same problem. I
guess lauchctl requires root previlages to unload the daemon.Hence I'm using
Authorization API to execute lauchctl instead of NSTask from Cocoa
Application.
I don't know why lauchctl is not working in combination with
Authorization API. Please help me to solve this.
Thanks in Advance,
JanakiRam.
