I installed a software named "urchin" on my FBSD 7.2 box.
Unfortunately, it didn't come with an rc.d script to automate startup
and shutdown. And even more unfortunately, I can't seem to get my head
around the concepts in "Practical rc.d scripting in BSD"
(http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/articles/rc-scripting/rcng-daemon.html).
This is the command that starts the app:
/usr/local/urchin/bin/urchinctl
And here are the options:
Usage: urchinctl [-v] [-h] [-e] [-s|-w] [-p port] action
where:
-v prints out the version of urchinctl
-h prints out this information
-e activates encryption (SSL) in the webserver
-s performs the action on the Urchin scheduler ONLY
-w performs the action on the Urchin webserver ONLY
-p specifies the port for the webserver to listen on
action is either: start, stop, restart, or status
start: starts the webserver and scheduler
stop: stops the webserver and scheduler
restart: stops and then starts the webserver and scheduler
status: prints out whether the webserver and scheduler are
running
By default, the action is performed on both the webserver and the
schedulers unless the -s or -w options are specified
All I want to do is create a script within the rc.d framework that runs
"/usr/local/urchin/bin/urchinctl start" when the system boots and
"/usr/local/urchin/bin/urchinctl stop" when the system shuts down.
Following the examples in the guide mentioned above, here is my attempt
at that file:
# !/bin/sh
# PROVIDE: urchin
# REQUIRE: NETWORKING
# KEYWORD: shutdown
#
# Add the following line to /etc/rc.conf to enable urchin:
# urchin_enable="YES" (bool): Set to "NO" by default.
# Set it to "YES" to enable urchin.
. /etc/rc.subr
name="urchin"
rcvar=`set_rcvar`
command="/usr/local/urchin/bin/urchinctl "
eval "${rcvar}=\${${rcvar}:-'NO'}"
load_rc_config $name
run_rc_command "$1"
I have also ensured that 'urchin_enable="YES"' is in /etc/rc.conf.
However when I run the rc.d script, the urchinctl appears to run but
doesn't like whatever arguments that are passed. See this output:
urchin# ./urchin-server start
Starting urchin.
Usage: urchinctl [-v] [-h] [-e] [-s|-w] [-p port] action
<snipped rest of options already shown above>
I'm sure I'm missing some simple concept. I'd really appreciate a kick
in the right direction.
Where is urchin located? /usr/local/bin? /usr/local/bin/urchin/bin?
Or somewhere else? Is urchinctl a shell or perl script?
There is no actual "urchin" as far as I know. The control file is
/usr/local/urchin/bin/urchinctl. It is a executable file:
urchin# file /usr/local/urchin/bin/urchinctl
/usr/local/urchin/bin/urchinctl: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386,
version 1 (FreeBSD), statically linked, stripped
After running "/usr/local/urchin/bin/urchinctl start", I have these
related processes:
urchin# ps acux | grep urchin
root 70937 0.0 0.0 3184 1996 ?? Ss 7:00PM 0:00.01 urchinwebd
nobody 70938 0.0 0.0 3184 2000 ?? I 7:00PM 0:00.00 urchinwebd
nobody 70939 0.0 0.0 3184 2000 ?? I 7:00PM 0:00.00 urchinwebd
nobody 70940 0.0 0.0 3184 2000 ?? I 7:00PM 0:00.00 urchinwebd
nobody 70941 0.0 0.0 3184 2000 ?? I 7:00PM 0:00.00 urchinwebd
nobody 70942 0.0 0.0 3184 2000 ?? I 7:00PM 0:00.00 urchinwebd
nobody 70944 0.0 0.0 1460 720 ?? Ss 7:00PM 0:00.03 urchind
nobody 70946 0.0 0.0 1332 668 ?? Is 7:00PM 0:00.51 urchind
And conversely, "/usr/local/urchin/bin/urchinctl stop" removes all of
the above processes.
Thanks,
Drew
