> Installed the NiFi via HomeBrew on my Mac laptop with *OS X (El Capital v 10.11.6)* and ran the _start / run_ commands, gave the expected result.
> But when I say `*nifi install*` , I couldn't do so. It gave the following message.
> `*_Installing Apache NiFi as a service is not supported on OS X or Cygwin._*`
> and I could see, that the *nifi.sh *says the above message if it detected the OS as _*Darwin*_ (
> https://github.com/apache/nifi/blob/master/nifi-nar-bundles/nifi-framework-bundle/nifi-framework/nifi-resources/src/main/resources/bin/nifi.sh#L59
> )
> and unfortunately the OS X is Darwin. But in the "*Getting Started with Apache NiFi*", it says installing nifi as a service is supported for OS X users. (Link -> https://nifi.apache.org/docs/nifi-docs/html/getting-started.html#installing-as-a-service)
