That RFE went round and round between Mark and myself... I trying to point out that the prefix option was supported natively in the Linux version of the source code and build tools capabilities... just that it did not actually work due to the hard coded PID file path in the ooRexx source code, and Mark rejecting to accept it as a bug/defect against ooRexx. I tried to research how other OSS/FS projects handled their PID file, and building from source with a custom prefix path... I do not exactly remember what conclusion that research produced. I believe I went asking in the MySQL developer group as MySQL also uses a PID file. I recall it being very hard to get folks on the ooRexx developer team to understand typical Linux Shared Web Hosting providers restrictions. The fact that I as a customer of hosting company am NOT granted a root account seemed to be the point of disconnect. All's well that ends well... ooRexx is still reliably working in Linux Share Web Hosting: (uiserver):u40009095:~ > which rexx /kunden/homepages/35/d157794216/htdocs/opt/oorexx/bin/rexx (uiserver):u40009095:~ > rexx -v Open Object Rexx Version 4.2.0 Build date: Mar 2 2014 Addressing Mode: 32 Copyright (c) IBM Corporation 1995, 2004.
