Launchd Help

Posted April 10, 2008

I unintalled Mozy ages ago and saw today that my console is throwing errors every 10 seconds that it's trying to call Mozy to run. I can't find com.berkeleydata.backup anywhere on my mac using Spotlight, EasyFind, find and locate. I also see no mention of it in LaunchDaemon or LaunchAgents.

I'm stuck. Please help.

com.berkeleydata.backup is the name of the object that is calling posix_spawnp. I suspect that part is correct, or else it wouldn't be complaining about posix_spawnp. It looks like the real problem is that it cannot find /Applications/Mozy.app/Contents/MacOS/MozyBackup.

If you're trying to disable it, did you also check /System/Library/Launch*, in addition to /Library/Launch* and the user's individual Launch*? If you just want it to run, my first take would be to fire up a cli and make sure that the path posix_spawnp is trying to call is actually there.

I have this problem myself, looks like it's from /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.mozy.backup.daemon.plist because the plist contains com.berkeleydata.backup
