One side effect of using run without -d is that no separate error.log is written; instead all that content goes to stdout. To get a separate error.log file, define StandardOutPath and StandardErrorPath in your launchd plist, with the desired path to the log file.

Just to let you know: CalendarServer launched via launchd is running for a couple of days now on my MBP. Seems to be running smoothly. Every now and then I notice an error in the logs:

The error does not seem to affect normal operation. I have not observed strange behavior or data loss in Calendar or Contacts.
