I followed the instructions listed for using lingon to install a launch daemon to start xampp....
I executed the command /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/xampp start
Set it as a user daemon
Set it to run every startup
Rebooted machine.
Apache started fine, MySQL did not. I executed the command from a terminal prompt and got this response:
- Code: Select all
$ /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/xampp start
Starting XAMPP for Mac OS X 1.7.3...
You need to be root to perform this action.

Is there any way to change permissions so it starts using the launch daemon. The command works with sudo, but is there another way? Even when I click the XAMPP controls button to start the server, I have to enter the admin password.
thanks
