Re: Question about Ventrilo port at startup

2006-11-14 Thread Miles Cannon

Hi Lowell,
The port maintainer wasn't able to reply to my first email, however, he
included the following in a reply to my post in questions which I've
included in case you should find it useful:
Check to make sure
your /usr/local/etc/ventrilo_srv.ini file can be read by the ventrilo
user/group.
chgrp ventrilo /usr/local/etc/ventrilo_srv.ini
Also make sure that the log file is writable by the ventrilo user.
chown /usr/local/ventrilo-server/ventrilo_srv.log

I still am having no luck with it starting up by itself on a reboot, which
is my main goal, however, I'll keep on trying and have asked another
question. Not sure what else is to be done other than enable it in
/etc/rc.conf
Thanks
Miles

That should be enough.  Can you try calling the script by hand, giving
the "forcestart" parameter?

I will try the forcestart option when I get home. I do know that the start
option has not worked for me, though, and I am not sure what I am doing
incorrectly. In any case, I'll let you know the results of this.
Thank you,
Miles
