29 = Running Monitor and wotaskd on Mac OS X =
30
31 Monitor and wotaskd are installed, but the launchd scripts to start them are not installed. You can grab them from a 10.5 Server installation, or follow those instructions.
32
33 Make sure //Web Sharing// is enabled in the //Sharing// panel in //System Preferences// (note: 10.5 comes with Apache 2.2 as the default).
34
35 Edit ///etc/apache2/httpd.conf// (if you did a fresh install, you may already have these - search httpd.conf first)
36
37 Search for rewrite//module, and above it, add this line~://
38
39 {{code}}
40
41 LoadModule WebObjects_module /System/Library/WebObjects/Adaptors/Apache2.2/mod_WebObjects.so
42
43 {{/code}}
44
45 Go to the very end and add:
46
47 {{code}}
48
49 Include /System/Library/WebObjects/Adaptors/Apache2.2/apache.conf
50
51 {{/code}}
52
53 Search for "Directory /" and comment out the Order and Deny lines:
54
55 {{code}}
56
57 <Directory />
58 Options FollowSymLinks
59 AllowOverride None
60 #Order deny,allow
61 #Deny from all
62 </Directory>
63
64 {{/code}}
65
66 Restart apache
67
68 {{code}}
69
70 sudo apachectl graceful
71
72 {{/code}}
73
74 If you run //ps auxw grep httpd// you should see apache now running
75
76 Create ///Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.webobjects.wotaskd.plist// with:
77 (for OSX 10.5 make sure the permissions of this file are 644 system/wheel/everyone otherwise launchctl will throw a "dubious permissions" error when you try to load the plist with the commands that follow)
