I have a script in /etc/init.d that starts when the machine boots up, but doesn't stop when the the machine shuts down.This simple script recreates the problem. It just logs when the 'testservice' is started and stopped. When the shutdown -h now command is run, it should be called with the 'stop' parameter shouldn't it?
# Att /etc/init.d/testservice

I am trying to create a custom service to manage a minecraft server what runs in a screen session (this is to allow easy console access as opposed to running it as a nohup background process). I am hitting two main issues with this script so far and wondering if anybody is able to shed some light on it, considering I am far from the greatest BASH scripter on Earth.
The issues are related to start and stop. the first issue with start is there is a command run "screen -dmS minecraft java -Xms1024M -Xmx1024M -jar /minecraft/minecraft.jar nogui" what doesn't appear to work, however when run from console (copy and pasted) this command seems to run perfectly. I am uncertain as to why this is not working within the script. Also if run from a script in /minecraft it also appears to work but in the minecraftd script I have created at /etc/init.d it does not work. I think the issue might be related to the location but am not certain on it, nor how to resolve it.
the second issue with stop is that it works sometimes but at other times it does not, overall it seems to work about 30~50% of the time. When it works it passes a couple of disconnection messages to the screen session and then gives the stop command (the command to gracefully terminate the minecraft server). It seems to work more often when using screen that I attach to the minecraft session while it is running but really not sure if this is an issue with my scripting or an issue with how I am passing things to screen.
The full code in /etc/init.d/minecraftd is below
Code:
#!/bin/bash

On macbook air 6.2, i've installed a Debian jessie mate DE, dual boot using refind. I'm currently fine-tuning it. I've made a script following powertop advice:
Code: Select all[newb@debian /etc/systemd/system]$ cat mba_kb_sp.sh
#!/bin/sh
echo 'auto' > '/sys/bus/usb/devices/1-3.1/power/control';
echo 'auto' > '/sys/bus/usb/devices/1-3.2/power/control';

I have a few problems getting a custom service/daemon to auto-start at boot. I'm running ubuntu 11.04 Server amd64 edition. One of the services is a Teamspeak3 server I'm trying to start.

I am running Fedora 11 with an Oracle 11g database installed. I came to check on it and found out that the oracle service had stopped. I also have a script that gets run by cron every minute. I noticed that the last entry in the log /var/log/cron was March 24 at 4:26. Which was really close (not exactly to the second but within a few minutes) of the last log entry in the database translator logs (the database was processing data and it outputs a log).
I rebooted the machine and cron started running again, but I can't get the oracle service to start again. Normally it runs at startup, but if I need to run it or check it, I use:
Code: /sbin/service oracle restart
Is there another log that I could look at to see what would be the cause of the stoppage? How to get the oracle service started again?

I am having new hardware and IDE driver for that hardware as drive disk image (it8213_centos53.img). CentOS 5.3 installation is working fine with drive disk image at USB and CentOS 5.3 at DVD. Our application uses CentOS 5.3 and we build a custom kick-start ISO for installations. Using that ISO client is going to install on all hardware boxes.
Note while installing :
a) No network connection is avalible.
b) No USB isavalible.
c) No floppy is avalible.
d) Only single CD-ROM is avalible.
So, is it possible to build single custom kick-start CentOS 5.3 ISO which contains dirve disk image and entire installation will be done using that image. If so please let me know the steps to build it.
What i want to be able to do is create a custom kickstart for my centOS 5 server. I want to create a bootable cd that I can pop in my server and basically walk away for 45 minutes and I come back and its fully installed. All the directions I have read so far tell me that I have to create a seperate ks.cfg and then I need my original centos cd to get it booted. Then the cd will ask for where the ks.cfg file is and I have to type the location. I just want to pop the CD in and type in linux_clean or something and have it perform a custom install based on the information and specification in my ks.cfg. How can I go about doing this?

I have builded my kernel through wiki manual, BUT, the kernel-headers rpm-package has not been builded. Now i have only two packages: kernel and kernel-devel. Is that ok?

I have a webservice which runs under Apache Tomcat. The service is started via a script in /etc/init.d. During the course of the Web service processing, the software must make use of the two NVIDIA GPUs on the computer to do some graphics processing. When this system is booted but not logged in, the web service is accessible but the software cannot access the software cannot access the X server to do it's processing. However, when I am logged in, the user can access the X servers and run correctly. I have tried various solutions but I always have to be logged in to run the software. I seem to have permissions problems but I'm unsure how to resolve them
Is there any way to grant permissions to root (the tomcat service is started as root) to allow it to run the software without logging in?
I am running CentOS 5.4 with Gnome display manager.
I been trying to install the Nvidia driver for my recently installed centos desktop but I could not find the services that I can stop. I have a gnome. did try gdm, xdgm etc etc but no luck how do I stop the x server service ? so that I can install the driver.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI want to install Cent OS5 on my machine. The Hard Disk is SATA. I want to discuss about how to custom partition the hard disk. In the old version there is a drop down list for manual partition the hard disk. like /,boot,swap,var etc etc. In the new version of centos 5 I can not see things like that. During installation process and in partition page there are things like:
Code:
Remove all partitions on selected drives and create default layout.
Remove Linux partitions on selected drives and create default layout.
Use free space on selected drives and create default layout.
Create custom layout.
When I choose custom layout it show me an error message. "An error has occurred-no invalid devices were found on which to create new files system. Please check your hardware for the cause of this problem."
I have a PXE/kickstart installation system running ok. I would like to build a custom installation x86_64 .iso with the i386 .rpms removed. Currently I install from the standard x86_64 iso, then go and remove the i386 rpm's with all the attendant problems and impact on docs etc. Has anybody tried this? Is it as simple as just deleting *i386.rpm and then building another .iso from the resultant installation tree?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to accomplish an objective, I need to get 389 Directory server installed in the process however is it possible to just have email addresses of users in the LDAP server? I have a primary domain, example 'abcefg.com' with about 3,000 users and several hosted domains like 'xyz.com' and 'mno.com'. The end goal is to speed up email processing, so instead of the Barracuda asking the email server(s) if a user exist it queries the LDAP.
Is there a way to configure 389 Directory Server to contain just the email addresses of the end users to allow the Barracuda to poll the LDAP server to verify the email address is valid. The rest of the authentication like password is handled by the email server. So in the end the LDAP server would just contain the email addresses (live) and the Barracuda would query the LDAP asking if joebob@abcefg.com exist if it does carry on. If user xxeedd@abcefg.com does not exist drop it and go on.
