Hi All;
I've got a development box that I use for a bunch of other purposes(mostly
music), and I was wondering if there was a way to configure launchd to only
start up postgres when it's needed. SSH does the same thing so I've tried
to fashion a plist for this purpose modeled after that(on my box it's
located at /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/ssh.plist) but something is wrong.
PGAdmin 3 errors out when I try to connect.
Below is my nonworking plist. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I'm
doing wrong?
thanks
