Once again with mysql, I gave up…uninstalled, then reinstalled following instructions at https://trac.macports.org/wiki/howto/MySQL but editing my.cnf so as to specify my own datadir, creating that datadir, and applying sudo chown -R _mysql:_mys

Thanks everyone. I ended up using this one, and it works like a charm. http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd";> Label local.rsyncd Program /opt/local/bin/rsync ProgramArguments /opt/local/bin/rsync --daemon inetdCompatibility

Re: mysql-server: The server quit without updating PID file

Try running the actual server command to see what is happening; likely there is an error that is preventing startup: sudo -u _mysql /opt/local/lib/mysql57/bin/mysqld - Eric

Re: rsyncd with macports 2.5.4 on macOS 10.13.6

Took me a moment to realize you were referring to the Portfile facility, not the obsoleted (as of what OS version?) OS facility, regarding StartupItems. Still, I see the plist file you describe is notably simpler than something that the Portfile startupitems facility would have generated (i.e. t

Curiously, after port unload rsync I still see rsync running: 21693 ?? Ss 0:00.00 /opt/local/bin/rsync --daemon --config=/opt/local/etc/rsyncd.conf I've been unable to find what starts it. Ideas? Thanks for the help on this.

Re: mysql-server: The server quit without updating PID file

Such searches give different instructions on what permissions to give the mysql datadir ! If the datadir is /Users/me/Databases/mysql/data (and my.cnf includes "datadir = /Users/murray/Databases/mysql/data”, of course), then who should be the owner and what should the permissions be on

Re: rsyncd with macports 2.5.4 on macOS 10.13.6

You can do it yourself, in which case you need to unload the MacPorts-supplied wrapper. But IMO, where daemondo is unnecessary, a plist without it should be supplied in MacPorts, so that it has the right name for port load / port unload to work, and so that one doesn't have to replace the plist

I've had issues before with the whole daemondo wrapper bit. Some things may need it, given how launchd has different expectations from other system's approaches to starting daemons, and some daemons may not have a sufficiently compliant behavior without daemondo as an intermediary. But when it
