Re: [tor-relays] Thoughts on automatically updating tor software on macos High Sierra



Yes. I tried following the steps and this is the result

chown root /Library/LaunchDaemons/upgradetor.plist 
chown: /Library/LaunchDaemons/upgradetor.plist: Operation not permitted


It looks like I might be a little bit screwed, I tried this both as the root user and admin user. Is there a way to be notified when a new tor version is released? I guess but updating doesn’t matter much as a relay restart is required when tor is updated to begin with...

Tried that twice now and it has not worked. It’s strange, the error terminal returns when trying to launch the script to upgrade tor is this


iMac:~ oldimac$ launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/starttorupgrade.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/starttorupgrade.plist: Path had bad ownership/permissions

Check out the first result for:
https://duckduckgo.com/?q=launchctl+Path+had+bad+ownership%2Fpermissions

This is very odd. I set the permissions to read and write for all users, but yet this error is still happening. I changed the permissions for the whole lanchdaemons folder as well and still no resolve to this. I even tried signing into the root user in Terminal to see if that would resolve the issue, it did not.

"It is also worth noting that these root LaunchDaemons can't be world writable, for security reasons:"
