Hi,
A while back some kind people helped with writing a script to start my Swiki
on boot (btw I'm using one of those headless Cobalt Linux appliances). The
script works fine, but NOT ON BOOT; I seem to have missed a step. Any
Unix/Linux sys admins on the list have any ideas what I still need to do.
Here is the script:
#!/bin/sh
. /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions
SQUEAKDIR=/opt/ComSwiki
SWPARAM="-headless -memory 40m"
SWIKIVM=$SQUEAKDIR/skweak
case "$1" in
start)
echo Starting Swiki
cd $SQUEAKDIR/
nohup $SWIKIVM $SWPARAM skweak.image &
;;
stop)
echo -n Killing Swiki
killproc $SWIKIVM
echo
;;
restart)
$0 stop;$0 start
;;
*)
echo "Usage: $0 {start|stop|restart}"
exit 1
esac
exit 0
It is saved here: /etc/rc.d/init.d
In addition, I'm having problems wrapping my head around the scripts for
auto-restart in case of server crash. While I haven't yet needed such a
script, I am about to go to an unwired part of Greece for a month; the Swiki
has to stay live without my direct intervention. Can some one give me a
dummies tutorial on how to set this up?
Thank you,
John
