I've set PlexConnect to run as daemon using

&nbsp;

cd "/Applications/PlexConnect-master/support/OSX"  
sudo ./install.bash

&nbsp;

But when restarting my mac I'm unable to connect. I have to unload and load manually every time.

&nbsp;

sudo launchctl unload /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.plex.plexconnect.bash.plist

sudo launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.plex.plexconnect.bash.plist

&nbsp;

What could be wrong?

after they restart - and before unloading/loading it again, what response do you get for...

```
sudo launchctl list | grep plexconnect
```

The second number should indicate your issue... though I am not quite sure how to translate them. Google should know. :-)
