Runner: OSX Runner service fails to start

Describe the bug

When I ssh into my OSX box, and try to start the service, I receive the following error:
Could not find domain for port (Aqua)

The command I'm running is cd actions-runner && ./svc.sh install

The ./run.sh command works without issue

To Reproduce
./svc.sh start

Expected behavior

• The service starts
• Rebooting the machine starts the service automatically

@jl-gogovapps i did a quick google search on the error, looks like related permission around the SSH user and the service installed user.
what user did you use to run ./svc.sh install and what user did you use to SSH?

[jl-gogovapps]

Hey @TingluoHuang, thanks for checking in on it. I'm ssh-ing, and then running ./svc.sh install so it's the same user. It's also the only primary user on the machine. I could give this a try

For anyone who ends up here, launchd can't load user's services until it logs in via gui. Auto login feature can help in that case

But it still seems a little off to me

Looks like this did the trick for me!

sudo cp {/Users/xxx/Library/LaunchAgents,/Library/LaunchDaemons}/your.plist

I was able to reboot my machine without logging in and see the runner active

This is happening on a fresh macOS install.
