Mac OS installer issue

[mindlube]

Your Mac installer, I believe, must have installed a launch daemon. I don't see it in any of the typical locations, like

launchctl list
~/Library/StartupItems
/Library/StartupItems
SystemPrefs | user | Login Items

So how is it being launched? I want to turn this off, and only run ES5 when I choose to run the script.

This is the first time I've heard of this. What makes you suspect it? When you restart your OS, is the ES5 started automatically?

Please note that the usual way to start ES5 starts a bootstrap process, which then spawns a background process that runs ES5. It's possible this is what you are referring to. If you don't want that to happen, use the SAFEMODE script instead, which keeps it all in a single process.

ES5 starts automatically, and it appears your Mac installer has installed a launch daemon. Seeing this in my Console.app too

I'll have Jason look into this. (I don't have a Mac myself)

Ah OK, I found it:
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.install4j.6594-8422-0284-4253.ElectroServer_5_3_2_Service.plist

Glad you found it. Is it possible that at one time you started ES5 by using the Service link instead of the normal one?
