I don't have any of those installed but most of the local rc.d scripts 
need an enable flag in /etc/rc.conf . Take a look at your rc.d scripts 
and see if they need them to.  You can also run these with -x to see 
what's happening (eg.,  sh -x /usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache22 start)




Since the original question has been answered I'll just add a little 
more detail.


Whenever you install some software that has a run script in 
/usr/local/etc/rc.d, there is an easy way to figure out which parameters 
need to be enabled in /etc/rc.conf. Just run the script with the "rcvar" 
parameter. (eg /usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache22 rcvar)


The same applies for system services (sshd, inetd) that have their start 
scripts in /etc/rc.d

I suggest you investigate what happens in your /etc/rc.conf script.
For example is there an apache22_enable="YES" line in there?
If not, running the /usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache22 start command will have
no effect.
Is it possible that somehow your /etc/rc.conf script is somehow damaged
/ renamed ?

You were right, i forgot to add the flag in rc.conf.

Thanks for the quick replies everyone.

I have these in /usr/local/etc/rc.d:

When i run any of them without parameters, they give out the parameters.

Starting the binaries themselves (from /usr/local/sbin, etc,

startup scripts not working

2007-05-10 Thread Ghirai
Hello list,

Suddenly, the startup scripts for various applications won't work.
I have these in /usr/local/etc/rc.d:
apache22, ircservices, postgresql, pure-ftpd, unrealircd

When i run any of them without parameters, they give out the parameters.
But when i use any of the params, nothing happens.

Starting the binaries themselves (from /usr/local/sbin, etc,
depending on the application) works, and the applications
themselves work fine.

None of the scripts work, they show the same behavior,
and i ran them as root.

I'm running 6.2-RELEASE-p4.

Any hints/help is appreciated.

Thanks.
