in the sapDB startup script, starting line ~34:
# Determine the base and follow a runlevel link name.
base=${0##*/}
link=${base#*[SK][0-9][0-9]}
# Force execution if not called by a runlevel directory.
test $link = $base && START_SAPDB=yes
test "$START_SAPDB" = yes || exit 0
to be honest I can't figure out what this does, but I know two things:
-These vars (base, link, START_SAPDB) aren't used elsewhere in the
script
-This bit of code prevents me from starting the service using an RC(X)
symlinke liks S98sapdb (which again is a mystery).
I did this:
# Determine the base and follow a runlevel link name.
#base=${0##*/}
#link=${base#*[SK][0-9][0-9]}
# Force execution if not called by a runlevel directory.
#test $link = $base && START_SAPDB=yes
#test "$START_SAPDB" = yes || exit 0
(I.e. commented it all out)
and it works just fine now :)
so, unless those lines are absolutely necessary, I'd get rid of 'em.
thanks for the great DB guys.
