What is daemon user on mac? I installed XAMPP on mac and it uses the user daemon. I have trouble accessing an external site that I have setup for which I am getting "Access Denied" error.
This is likely because daemon user does not have access to this folder. I can't see this user among user users. I have looked everywhere.
Where I can access/change permission to this user?

I came to know about Daemons and Agents on mac. Are they related?
How would I add this user to directory. Because when I click get info a folder, this user (daemon) is not listed.
Ref : XAMPP on Mac OSX: Why running as 'daemon'?

In /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/etc/httpd.conf change

User daemon
Group daemon


to

User YourName
Group YourGroup


Fixed!
