Hi to all, I'm unable on my macOs Sierra to make permanent my route...
On terminal I add route with command:
sudo route add -n 192.168.0/16 192.168.46.1
I try with several method to make di route permanent:
Any suggest?
Thanks
Stefano
Yes, the script is owned by root.
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 501B 20 Gen 11:13 local.staticroute.vm.plist
This the content:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>Label</key>
<string>local.staticroute.vm</string>
<key>ProgramArguments</key>
<array>
<string>route</string>
<string>add</string>
<string>-n</string>
<string>192.168.0/16</string>
<string>192.168.46.1</string>
</array>
<key>RunAtLoad</key>
<true/>
</dict>
</plist>
Many thanks!
If it loads fine, but doesn't run for some reason, that may show up in Console, but I'm not certain.
There may be something wrong with the plist. I found there is little help determining what that might be.
Also, make sure the plist is owned by root.
I don't know if I will see anything wrong with it, but post the contents of the plist and I'll take a look.
I'm not sure, but perhaps it is something to do with the /16. That may be getting interpreted incorrectly as it is translated from the plist. If it works straight from the command line, I would think it would work in the plist.
You could try this approach: https://www.jverdeyen.be/mac/persistent-static-routes-mac-os-x/
However, in the shell script, I don't think you should use "sudo" as it is run by root by default.
Nothing... 😟
In console I see only this error, but I don't know the cause...
rejecting read of { kCFPreferencesAnyApplication, kCFPreferencesAnyUser, kCFPreferencesCurrentHost, no container, managed: 0 } from process 548 because accessing preferences outside an application's container requires user-preference-read or file-read-data sandbox access
Thanks
The second will not work as StartupItems is no longer supported.
I don't see anything wrong with the first with regards to the LaunchDaemon. Do you get any errors when you load it?
Hi Barney, thanks. No, any error. The service seems to be loaded correctly.
Any log file?
Thanks
I don't know, but I don't think that message has anything to do with it.
I also don't know where to go from here.
