VirtualHere, which I've run for years, suddenly stopped starting up today, until I reentered:
sudo /Applications/VirtualHereServerUniversal.app/Contents/MacOS/vhusbdosx -b
This, I believe, removed it as a daemon, and it starts when I do this, but of course now osascript wants me to enter a password every time. The log file is not helpful, filled with entries like this:

And so forth. I'm really not sure what to do...I certainly didn't make any major changes I can think of.

Stop and exit the VirtualHere server then download and run this version
