I'm trying to figure out how to get an rc.subr script to start and stop a
script.

This works from the commandline (to start it):
tclsh /usr/local/bin/dir/script -D -c /usr/local/etc/conffile

I've tried various combinations of:

command_interpreter
argument_precmd
command_args

but I keep getting this error:
unknown directive '/usr/local/bin/sguil-sensor/pads_agent.tcl'

Doesn't matter if I make that string the val for command and don't use
command_interpreter or do use command_interpreter.

I've read the man page over and over, but I'm clueless as to how to use
run_rc_script, which I *think* is the right way to call this script.


Make the script executable

It is.

, put a shebang in; #!/usr/bin/env tclsh

Here's the current script's starting lines:

#!/bin/sh
# Run tcl from users PATH \
exec tclsh "$0" "$@"

# !/bin/sh

. /etc/rc.subr

name=tclshexample
rcvar=tclshexample_enable

load_rc_config $name

: ${tclshexample_enable=YES}

command="/usr/local/bin/dir/script"
command_interpreter=tclsh
command_args="-D -c /usr/local/etc/conffile"

run_rc_command $@

Would be much easier if you were to provide specifics or the actual
script :)

Here's the rc script I'm working on.

. /etc/rc.subr

load_rc_config pads_agent

#set defaults
pads_agent_enable=${pads_agent_enable:-"NO"}
pads_agent_conf=${pads_agent_conf:-"/usr/local/etc/sguil-sensor/pads_agent.conf"}
pads_agent_flags="${pads_agent_flags}:-"-D -c ${pads_agent_conf}"

name="pads_agent"
rcvar=pads_agent_enable

command="/usr/local/bin/sguil-sensor/pads_agent.tcl"
command_interpreter="tclsh"
command_args=${pads_agent_flags}

run_rc_command "$@"

Here's the error I'm getting when I run start:

/usr/local/etc/rc.d/pads_agent: WARNING: $command_interpreter tclsh != /bin/sh
Starting pads_agent.
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/pads_agent: WARNING: $command_interpreter tclsh != /bin/sh /usr/local/etc/rc.d/pads_agent: unknown directive '/usr/local/bin/sguil-sensor/pads_agent.tcl'. Usage: /usr/local/etc/rc.d/pads_agent [fast|force|one|quiet](start|stop|restart|rcvar|status|poll)
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/pads_agent: WARNING: failed to start pads_agent

I tried changing the interpreter to "/bin/sh" but I got the same error.

Here's the perms on the script:

# ls -lsa /usr/local/bin/sguil-sensor/pads_agent.tcl
