I've been working on a solution to some issues with getting OpenOffice.org.app to work in a headless state but there is some issue with the build that prevents this. So, as a work around I am trying to come up with a LaunchAgent that will load OpenOffice.org on boot and run consistently. It seems I have no choice to use LoginWindow and Aqua to keep it up regardless of whether or not a user is logged in. On 10.4.11 no matter what I do, it does not load at boot. I have to manually load it with launchctl load /Library/LaunchAgents/net.execuchoice.doc-converter.plist Obviously this is not practical. On 10.5.x it loads as expected on boot. My questions are: 1) Am I doing something wrong in the following file? 2) Is there something I can do to get this to work universally for both platforms? (10.4 & 10.5) 3) Is there a way to have this launch regardless of the LoginWindow or Aqua session type rather than have an instance close and relaunch? <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>KeepAlive</key> <true/> <key>OnDemand</key> <false/> <key>RunAtLoad</key> <true/> <key>Label</key> <string>net.execuchoice.doc-converter</string> <key>LimitLoadToSessionType</key> <array> <string>LoginWindow</string> <string>Aqua</string> </array> <key>ProgramArguments</key> <array> <string>/Applications/OpenOffice.org.app/Contents/MacOS/soffice.bin</string> <string>-headless</string> <string>-nologo</string> <string>-nofirststartwizard</string> <string>-invisible</string> <string>-accept="socket,host=127.0.0.1,port=8100;urp;"</string> </array> <key>StandardErrorPath</key> <string>/Library/Logs/OpenOfficeDaemon.log</string> <key>StandardOutPath</key> <string>/Library/Logs/OpenOfficeDaemon.log</string> </dict> </plist> Thanks Steffan --------------------------------------------------------------- T E L 6 0 2 . 7 9 3 . 0 0 1 4 | F A X 6 0 2 . 9 7 1 . 1 6 9 4 Steffan A.
