Error while executing .plist file Path had bad ownership/permissions

Question

Getting a error while executing the plist file in terminal

ERROR : Path had bad ownership/permissions

1) I created a plist

Answer 1

Try changing the ownership of the .plist file:

sudo chown root /Library/LaunchDaemons/myfile.plist
sudo chgrp wheel /Library/LaunchDaemons/myfile.plist

or more simply, change the user and group in one command:

sudo chown root:wheel /Library/LaunchDaemons/myfile.plist

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

sudo chmod o-w /Library/LaunchDaemons/*
