I am working on writing a rc_script for my attempted "quassel-core" subpackage
of quassel.
Actually, it seems that the entire port, except for the rc_script, is
production-ready (at least to me)
So.. with that in mind, here a few questions that I can't really seem to figure
out.
One, where is the best place to put something like
"before running the daemon, verify the existence of /path/to/file and fail with
a specific error message"
Right now, I have it in
rc_pre() {
if [ ! -f /path/to/file]; then
_rc_err "ERROR: /path/to/file not found"
exit 1
fi
}
It -does- exit the script, and the rc_start() command is -not- processed.. so
I know that part is working..
However, there is no output, and the script doesn't "fail" it just quits,
silently...
Thanks
Chuck
