Starting and stopping daemons might be visible in system logs, but I am not able to verify as I have currently no access to macOS machine. This error might be temporarily reported in case AGENT is started prior to ESET security daemon, but it should recover almost immediately. Mentioned "Product is installed but is not running" error indicates that EES/ EAV daemon is not running in the moment when AGENT tried to connect to it. they are background services managed by launchd. Not sure I understand correctly macOS terminology, but both AGENT and EES/ EAV are started as "Launch Daemons", i.e. Or is the ESET Agent/Client daemon starting up outside of the startup daemon (ie. I guess the place for me to start is to see if the daemon is starting correctly as part of the startup daemon. This is why I thought maybe the daemon did not start correctly or needed to be restarted. Which would seem strange since ESET has been running on this machine for close to a year with no 'known' issues.

So, unless one has to manually approve the ESET kernel after an upgrade (I have not experienced this - only occurs if ESET is being installed on top of macOS 10.13) I have to wonder if there is some type of corruption going on. But, the problematic machine discussed above was running an older version of macOS when the ESET Agent/Client was installed and only recently had been upgraded to the latest macOS 10.13. I'm still trying to figure out why this is the case. There have been a few instances where restarting the machine does not actually auto-start the ESET daemon. To remedy the issue only thing that was done was to restart (actually sometimes took multiple restarts) the machine and the client started up normally. Regarding this specific issue - I have had this happen on other Mac's, one of which is my test machine. There doesn't seem to be much documentation for the things you listed out. Thanks Martin good to become aware of all of those contexts.

ESET daemons are auto-started, so this error might indicate problems - for example installation might be corrupted, or maybe only ESET kernel extensions need manual approval, as is case for masOS 10.13.

Also be aware that environment (env variables) and permissions might be different as when using administrator account.Įxecution of task is asynchronous, which means AGENT won't be waiting for result, and also there will be no output/exit code available in ERA console.Īnd for this specific scenario, I guess restarting another daemon should be possible, but what I am not sure is whether it helps. Using methods for personification are required.

This complicates interaction with user desktop or user applications. Task actually takes user input and uses it as an shell content, which is executedīe aware that system daemon as is AGENT has no direct access to user desktop. Task is executed in context of ERAAgent process, which is by default running as daemon with root privileges Just a few notes regarding run command task you should be aware of:
