Purpose I want to use launchd to run a shell script asynchronously every minute, but I'm encountering an issue where the job does not run, and I receive the error "Bootstrap failed: 5: Input/output error". I need help identifying the cause of this issue and how to configure launchd correctly. What I've done Created the shell script (test_ls_save.sh) The script is designed to list the contents of the desktop and save the output to a specified directory. #!/bin/bash DATE=$(date +%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S) SAVE_DIR=/Users/test/Desktop/personal/log_gather FILE_NAME="ls_output_$DATE.log" ls ~/Desktop > "$SAVE_DIR/$FILE_NAME" echo "ls output saved to $SAVE_DIR/$FILE_NAME" File permissions (ls -l output): -rwxr-xr-x 1 test staff 1234 Feb 17 10:00 /Users/test/Desktop/personal/log_gather/exec/test_ls_save.sh Created the launchd plist file (com.test.logTest.plist) The plist file is configured to execute the shell script every minute. <key>Label</key> <string>com.test.logTest</string> <key>ProgramArguments</key> <array> <string>/bin/bash</string> <string>-c</string> /Users/test/Desktop/personal/log_gather/exec/test_ls_save.sh </array> <key>StartInterval</key> <integer>60</integer> <!-- Run every minute --> File permissions (ls -l output): -rwxr-xr-x 1 test staff 512 Feb 17 10:00 /Users/test/Library/LaunchAgents/com.test.logTest.plist Ran the job with launchctl I used the following command to load the plist file into launchd: sudo launchctl bootstrap gui/$(id -u) /Users/test/Library/LaunchAgents/com.test.logTest.plist pc spec MacBook Pro Apple M1 16 GB RAM macOS 15.3 (Build 24D60) what I know The configuration has been set, but the launchd job is not running every minute as expected. I don't believe there is a mistake with the path. When I check the job using launchctl list, the job does not appear in the list. I don't know where the error log files are supposed to be. I checked /var/log/system.log, but there are no error logs. The .sh file runs fine by itself, but it cannot be executed via launchctl. Want to ask What could be the cause of the launchd job not running as expected? Also, is there a way to check where the logs are being output? If there is an error in the plist file configuration, which part should be modified? Specifically, what improvements should be made regarding environment variables and path settings? If my information is not enough, please tell me what is not enough!
