I have Dovecot running as a daemon via a launchd plist. It runs fine but doesn't stop if I run launchctl stop
nor if I unload the plist so I end up using doveadm stop
. Is there a key or command I add to the plist to tell it how to stop a service? I've checked the man pages for launchd.plist and launchctl but can't find anything like it.
This is the relevant part of the plist:
<?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>Label</key>
<string>local.dovecot</string>
<!--
<key>KeepAlive</key>
<false/>
-->
<key>RunAtLoad</key>
<true/>
<key>ProgramArguments</key>
<array>
<string>/opt/pkg/sbin/dovecot</string>
<!-- <string>-F</string> -->
</array>
<key>StandardErrorPath</key>
<string>/Library/Logs/Dovecot/stdout.log</string>
<key>StandardOutPath</key>
<string>/Library/Logs/Dovecot/stderr.log</string>
</dict>
</plist>
There's no KeepAlive or anything like that, it's a very simple plist.
Any help with this will be much appreciated.
