stop/start services
Hi I asked a question about stopping/starting tomcat, but I suppose I didnt ask it right. What I should have asked is: How do I stop/start services that I have enabled in my rc.conf, such as mysql, tomcat etc. I have tried from my rc.d/ with tomcat but it will not work for me... Does anyone have any info for me that could help me out with this?

Cheers, Matthew Hi Matthew, Well I have the service enabled in my rc.conf... so going to localhost:8180 shows me the default tomcat page saying its working etc... the jsp examples work fine. When i try /usr/local/etc/rc.d/tomcat55.sh stop i get: tomcat55 not running? (check /var/run/tomcat55.pid) Thats it. tomcat55.pid contains 2039. I created a jsp file with just plain html in it... but when i browse to it I get a HTTP 500 error (exception report). I have the file in the correct place according to the docs so Im not sure why is not working... I have originally some small piece of jsp but figured Id have to restart the server in order for it to work, which is what Im trying to do now...

I'm not familiar with Tomcat, but rcNG has the capability of solving these
types of problems. The author of the script can use check_process(${name}
command_interpreter) instead, so that the scripts will check the running
processes rather than the pidfile.
I'm working on a set of ports that require that because they are tcl
scripts, so the ${name} of the process is squild, but ps returns tclsh8.4
instead.
*If* that's the problem with Tomcat, it's fairly easily fixed.
