Hi, I'm trying James again after a two year gap. I previously ran James on a Windows server but am now using it it on a Redhat FC2 system.
I've followed the Wiki page (http://wiki.apache.org/james/RunAsService) as closely as I can to get James running as a service but it just won't automatically start at boot time. If I manually run a command like '/etc/init.d/james start' it is fine. I've tried looking at various log files but I can't see any major problems. I'm open to suggestions as I obviously don't want our email service to disappear any time the server is rebooted. I have seen one or two people suggest using the jsvc application used by Tomcat. I think this is a splendid idea as I too would like to run it as something other than root. I had a quick look into this when I was setting the system up and came away with the impression that the Daemon loader object has to support an 'init' method instead of a 'Main' method for this to work. If anyone has successfully managed this... let me know! Thanks, David Legg.
