  <title>macOS: Starting the Web Service With launchd</title>
  
  <body>
    <p>On macOS, launchd is used to start the <ph conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/> webservice. An
      example configuration file can be found in
        <filepath>$HOME/Library/LaunchAgents/org.virtualbox.vboxwebsrv.plist</filepath>. It can be enabled by changing
      the <codeph>Disabled</codeph> key from <codeph>true</codeph> to <codeph>false</codeph>. To manually start the
      service use the following command: </p>
    <pre xml:space="preserve">launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/org.virtualbox.vboxwebsrv.plist</pre>
    <p>For additional information on how launchd services could be configured see: </p>
    <p><ph>https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/MacOSX/Conceptual/BPSystemStartup/Chapters/CreatingLaunchdJobs.html</ph>.
