I have a plist file:

I want to pipe the output of the handbrake.sh script to a log file and try to do so, but “No such file” keeps appearing in the system.log on OSX Error.

If I change the plist to the following, it will run, but I have no record, so I assume it only runs the first parameter:
Label
com.ilium007.handbrake
ProgramArguments

The command I want to run through launchd is:
/Users/ilium007/support/scripts/handbrake/handbrake.sh >> /Users/ilium007/support/scripts/handbrake/logs/handbrake_encode.log
There is nothing in the log file. But if I run the command from the terminal, I get the content in the log. Any Help, would be greatly appreciated.

Please note that it will automatically Attach (equivalent to >> instead of >). You can also redirect stderr using the StandardErrorPath key. One thing you can’t do is use ~ (like ~/support/scripts/handbrake/logs/handbrake_encode.log) – this It is also a shell feature that launchd cannot simulate.
I have tried many different changes, but I can’t make it work.

>> is a shell operator, not a program parameter, and launchd will not pass its commands through the shell (unless you Force it, as in @Lauri's answer). But launchd does have its own option to redirect stdout:
StandardOutPath /Users/ilium007/support/scripts/handbrake/logs/handbrake_encode.log Please note that it will be appended automatically (equivalent to >>, not >). You can also use the StandardErrorPath key to redirect stderr. One thing you can't do is use ~ (such as ~/support/scripts/handbrake/logs/handbrake_encode.log)-this is also a shell feature that launchd cannot emulate.
