could not lookup DNS configuration info service: (ipc/send) invalid destination port

[William Ottley <wottley (at) cmicanada.com>]

Hi all,
I really appreciate all the help that I¹ve gotten from the mailing list!

I am trying to create a startup script for OSX 10.4.11, using launchd

I place a file: xymon.plist in:
/Library/LaunchDaemons

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN"
"http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd";>
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>  
        <key>KeepAlive</key>
        <true/>
        <key>Label</key>
        <string>xymon</string>
        <key>OnDemand</key>
        <false/>
        <key>Program</key>
        <string>/Users/xymon/client/runclient.sh</string>
        <key>ProgramArguments</key>
        <array> 
                <string>/Users/xymon/client/runclient.sh</string>
                <string>start</string>
        </array>
        <key>RunAtLoad</key>
        <true/>
        <key>ServiceDescription</key>
        <string>Xymon Startup</string>
        <key>UserName</key>
        <string>xymon</string>
</dict>
</plist>

Ran the command line:
Launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/xymon.plist

And in /var/log/system.log:
ay 28 13:20:15 ns1 com.apple.launchd[1] (xymon): Throttling respawn: Will
start in 10 seconds
May 28 13:20:25 ns1 xymon[91563]: Hobbit client already running, re-starting
it
May 28 13:20:25 ns1 xymon[91563]: Hobbit client stopped
May 28 13:20:25 ns1 xymon[91563]: Hobbit client for darwin started on
ns1.local

Over and over again, and the PID keeps going higher and higher.

And in /Users/xymon/client/log/hobbitclient.log:
could not lookup DNS configuration info service: (ipc/send) invalid
destination port


I suspect its because of this error that it keeps getting restarted?
Any know what this means?

Thanks!!!
