Please learn about what Repair Permissions does and does not accomplish and when to use it: http:/ / / 8301-13727_7-10330946-263.html? tag=mncol (The article's title is rhetorical, because in fact: Repair Permissions is no panacea at all, any more than checkdisk will solve "all" problems with Windows: of course it won't, that's not what it's designed or intended for).ĭid you miss the word "try" in my suggestion, as well as the bit about it being an off the wall suggestion? I never claimed that it would fix anything, merely suggested it as something to try. What do you intend to have running as a service/daemon including when no user is logged in ?įix Permissions won't do anything to address this, sorry. So you'll need to adjust your planning, goals and procedures. Fast user switching preserves an existing login session for current (already logged in) users, so it's not at all the same thing as logging out, which terminates the existing login/console session and the associated user-land processes (applications that you launched while logged in as the user in question).
Some applications might be a front-end to background processes that can indeed run without an active login/console session (for example, FileMaker Server) or a System Preference Pane (not an application, but useful for further elaboration) for starting and stopping a service process (Web Sharing for Apache, or the MySQL Syspref pane that comes with the dmg Mysql download).īut an application ? Tied to an existing/current login session. Whether it was launched via a script or not. Same as with Windows: If you log out, any sandard, standalone application is going to exit. An application is not designed to run as a background service.
