Sierra support about pinpoint HOT 6 CLOSED

The cdhash in clients.plist is no longer created in Sierra so it falls back to 10.10 style formatting. I don't think this is a problem but I need to do more 10.11 to 10.12 upgrade tests. I think if you upgrade from 10.11 with: LS on and python enabled, pinpoint would continue to work (more testing needed)

The root issue, that I am working on is, I'm unable to start/stop Location Services with:

sudo launchctl unload /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.locationd.plist
sudo launchctl load /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.locationd.plist

I'm not even sure it is possible to work around that anymore. Apple might have made that restricted. It might be possible to start prompting end users to enable location services themselves however I really don't like that solution. It isn't very corporate friendly.

And what I've been working on for 24 days just started working. Can others running 10.12 please test the launchctl commands above and let me know if it does properly disable and then re-enable Location Services. You'll need to close and relaunch System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy (tab) for it to reload the settings.

Confirmed to be working on 10.12.1 Beta (16B2338c):

sudo launchctl unload /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.locationd.plist

Location services are disabled

sudo launchctl load /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.locationd.plist

Location services are enabled again

I use 10.12 (16A323) and the launchctl commands work.

Thanks guys. That helped narrow down my issue. Location Services on 10.12 has changed but the above isn't the hiccup.

No thank you! Ill try out the new version that i’ve received with autopkg!
