Feel free to take the rest of the day off,

Eddy,

Your program appears to be overloading the launchd schema for the storage of private preferences. That was not supported in Tiger, and that is now enforced in Leopard. Please update the code to manage preferences elsewhere.

Thanks!

Hello,

I've been searching around and have not been able to find any hints. I have a plist, pref
pane based app that fires off at a preset time. With Tiger its all good. However Leopard
is failing to run the app at the scheduled time.

Pasted are some errors that I hope will help to identify the problem. I'm not the developer,
who is a contractor dealing with another deadline. I'm hoping to gather information on his
behalf in order to expedite the resolution.

I have access to the dev boxes and can run commands and capture any needed output.

Any help appreciated, and thanks in advance,
Eddy
