Stop the presses! I got it working :-)
Sorry for cross posting. I'll write it up in more detail later, on my
own Pier installation even! But here's the rough notes at the moment:
1) I'm on Mac OS 10.4 Tiger on Intel
2) I downloaded the Pier 1.2 one-click install from www.piercms.com
that is running on Pharo VM I believe
3) I enabled LSBackgroundOnly = true in the "info.plist" file inside
the .app bundle resources - The purpose of this is to not let the app
startup in the dock... I had somehow missed this before because my
dock is normally hidden.
4) Needed to use "-headless" option as that is the only one that
works with this vm. The -vm-display-null option does not work.
Here's the command I use to load into launchd:
sudo launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.squeak.seaside.plist
(That also shows the path to where I put the custom plist file in for
launchd).
Below is the contents of the launchd plist file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://
www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>Disabled</key>
<false/>
<key>Label</key>
<string>com.squeak.seaside</string>
<key>OnDemand</key>
<false/>
<key>ProgramArguments</key>
<array>
<string>/Applications/Smalltalk/Pier-1.2.app/Contents/MacOS/Squeak
VM Opt</string>
<string>-headless</string>
<string>/Applications/Smalltalk/Pier-1.2.app/Contents/Resources/
pier.image</string>
</array>
<key>ServiceIPC</key>
<false/>
<key>StandardErrorPath</key>
<string>/Library/Logs/com.squeak.seaside.log</string>
<key>StandardOutPath</key>
<string>/Library/Logs/com.squeak.seaside.log</string>
<key>UserName</key>
<string>root</string>
</dict>
</plist>
Again, I'll write more later, and clarify once I get Pier set up on
the desired server Mac.
Thanks everyone,
