If you start the LaunchDaemons manually do they work? If so you may be running into the same issue I have been struggling with off and on. If you go back to the June mailing list archives you will sees thread I started regarding LightTPD. That should offer some help. -- Sterling Anderson http://sterlinganderson.net sterling_anderson [at] mac.com 608.239.8387 On Jul 24, 2007, at 3:59 AM, "Samuel V. Green III" <unkie@cox.net> wrote:

I'm doing another fresh install of Apache2.2 and Mysql5 on 10.4.10. My previous attempt was on my powerbook with no flaws. However, now the LaunchDaemons for org.macports.apache2 and org.macports.mysql5 fail to fire up at reboot. I checked all permissions and they look fine.

Any Help would be gratefully welcomed!

Samuel.

What exactly is the command to manually start the "start-up items?"

To activate a launch daemon service now, and have it activate at every subsequent system startup (if it's working properly), do e.g. this: sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.apache2.plist To stop the service now, and have it no longer attempt to activate at system startup, do this: sudo launchctl unload -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/ org.macports.apache2.plist
