/usr/sbin/ipconfig waitall is already part of the default startup script for wotaskd and JavaMonitor but it didn't work on Snow Leopard for some reason.

Did some more research and seems like using the Network Reachability Framework API can be used for this and other launchd Daemons. (http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/Networking/Conceptual/SystemConfigFrameworks/SC_ReachConnect/SC_ReachConnect.html#/ /apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40001065-CH204-BHAFBAHI)

I wrote a quick Objective C script to determine the reachability of my local machine. I called this from the startup scripts and it seemed to work. I'm specifically using kSCNetworkFlagsReachable .

We had a similar problem with Tomcat starting before network was ready. We solved the problem by putting

/usr/sbin/ipconfig waitall

in the tomcat startup script. This might help here, and be a bit more reliable than just sleeping for 15 seconds.

Turns out that it was the launchd launch daemon. It was starting wotaskd and JavaMonitor before setting up the network for the machine resulting in weird behavior. Adding sleep 15 to the wotaskd and JavaMonitor init script solved the problem. I'm looking into a better way of doing this. Tried but that did not work.

Thanks everyone for your help/suggestions.

I looked at the SpawnofWotaskd.log further:

Something even more weird further up in the logs

I set the HTTP Adaptor to my other server in JavaMonitor, not localhost. Is WOAdaptorURL set correctly above.

I prefer it to have a FQDN for deployment boxes.


Well, that what I did. I entered the FQDN for my server where the WOAdaptor sits. I did this in JavaMonitor. But WOAdaptorURL still points to http://localhost/cgi-bin/WebObjects in the logs.

Could this be the problem?


I don't think so. What is this getting set to in the additional args of the app?
