Hi: UPDATE: The UNIX error message is referring to the absolute path of the jsvc executable. When I invoked the executable with its absolute path it worked. I assume it's the same problem on Mac OS X.
/usr/local/bin/jsvc -jvm server -debug -home /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk -cp /usr/local/bin/commons-daemon-1.0.15.jar:myjar.jar MyDaemonClass I'm really happy it's working now.
