[launchd-dev] LaunchDaemon unable to launch and causing messages in log

[pavan kumar]

Hi Dave,

I checked that Group record is available. I used the command "dscl . read
/Groups/sysmac" and it has listed the proper information. I did a comparison
between the machines where this plist is working and non working machine but
I dont see any specific differences otherthan, there are three more groups
like com.apple.sharepoint.group.3, com.apple.sharepoint.group.4,
com.apple.sharepoint.group.5. But these seems to be linked with the
filesharing groups. Can there be any other reasons to get this error? Also
could you please tell me what exactly the error mean?

Thanks & Regards
Pavan
