Re: starting cyrus at boot?
Why not add a chkconfig line to the script and let 'chkconfig --add imapd'
after copying the script to /etc/rc.d/init.d/imapd. You can then use
chkconfig to do all of the messy stuff with links and can use chkconfig to
turn off/on the script at will...
Example of chkconfig line:
# chkconfig: 2345 55 25
# description: Cyrus IMAPD
the chkconfig line is: runlevel(s) start-priority stop-priority
So, adding the above would create links in /etc/rc.d/rc[0-6].d to start
server in levels 2,3,4,5 and stop in levels 0,1,6.

While we're talking about starting cyrus on Red Hat boxes I thought now would be a good time to mention the oddity I found when using Cyrus 2.0.16, Postfix, and Red Hat 6.2 + errata. This behavior is not a problem in Red Hat 7.1 or 7.2. (I was sane enough to never run Red Hat 7.0 on a server.) Because both the postfix and cyrus servers use a "master" process the Red Hat 6.2 init scripts can get somewhat confused when issuing stop and restart. For example /sbin/service cyrus restart has a tendency to stop the postfix 'master' process and the cyrus 'master' process. The work around for my was to symlink cymaster -> master in the cyrus directory then alter the /etc/rc.d/cyrus startup script start and stop cymaster instead of master. Hope it helps someone. -- Regards, Scott Russell ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Linux Technology Center, System Admin, RHCE. T/L 441-9289 / External 919-543-9289 http://bzimage.raleigh.ibm.com/webcam
Re: starting cyrus at boot?
here's a script i use for starting/stopping/restart cyrus on my redhat
server.
copy and paste this into a file in /etc/init.d or /etc/rc.d/init.d
depending on you system, call the file cyrus or whatever makes you
happy.
chown root.root /etc/init.d/cyrus
chmod u+x /etc/init.d/cyrus
cd /etc/rc3.d
ln -s ../init.d/cyrus S99cyrus
ln -s ../init.d/cyrus K99cyrus
you might need to modify some of the path names if you've installed
cyrus outside of the default locations. if you where running this on a
solaris 7 or 8 system you could use /usr/bin/pkill instead of
/usr/bin/killall and you'd want to place the rc script in /etc/rc2.d
instead of rc3.d.
enjoy
--BEGIN COPY--
#!/bin/sh
#
# Start/Shut for cyrus master server process
#
case "$1" in
'start')
if [ -f /etc/cyrus.conf ] ; then
echo "Starting Cyrus Master Process"
/usr/cyrus/bin/master 1> /dev/console 2>&1 &
fi
;;
'stop')
echo "Shutting down Cyrus Master Process"
/usr/bin/killall master 1>/dev/console 2>&1
;;
'restart')
echo "Restarting Cyrus Master Process"
/usr/bin/killall -HUP master 1>/dev/console 2>&1
;;

echo "Usage: $0 { start | restart | stop }"
;;
esac
exit 0
--END COPY--

If you installed a rpm , it should be /etc/init.d/cyrus restart or /etc/rc.d/init.d/cyrus restart justin > never used mandrake but you should be able to just add > '/usr/cyrus.bin.master &' to your rc.local (or equivalent) file. > > -- > =G= > > -=* I'm sorry if doing things correctly offends you. *=- > > Jeff Bert wrote: >> Tried that and didn't find one for cyrus-imapd >> >> >>>-Original Message- >>>From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >>>[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Alain Tesio >>>Sent: Friday, March 08, 2002 1:34 AM >>>To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >>>Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >>>Subject: Re: starting cyrus at boot? >>> >>> >>>On Fri, 8 Mar 2002 01:03:01 -0800 >>>"Jeff Bert" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >>> >>> >>>>Sure, I have: >>>> >>>>Linux Mandrake 8.1, kernel 2.4.8 >>>> >>>>I installed cyrus-imapd-2.0.16 from the tarball >>>>that I downloaded from the cyrus site. >>>> >>>>Jeff >>>> >>>Go to rpmfind.net, download a rpm package for mandrake >>>and install it, it should be easier. >>> >>>Alain

never used mandrake but you should be able to just add '/usr/cyrus.bin.master &' to your rc.local (or equivalent) file. -- =G= -=* I'm sorry if doing things correctly offends you. *=- Jeff Bert wrote: > Tried that and didn't find one for cyrus-imapd > > >>-Original Message- >>From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >>[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Alain Tesio >>Sent: Friday, March 08, 2002 1:34 AM >>To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >>Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >>Subject: Re: starting cyrus at boot? >> >> >>On Fri, 8 Mar 2002 01:03:01 -0800 >>"Jeff Bert" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> >> >>>Sure, I have: >>> >>>Linux Mandrake 8.1, kernel 2.4.8 >>> >>>I installed cyrus-imapd-2.0.16 from the tarball >>>that I downloaded from the cyrus site. >>> >>>Jeff >>> >>Go to rpmfind.net, download a rpm package for mandrake >>and install it, it should be easier. >> >>Alain >> >>

RE: starting cyrus at boot?
Sure, I have: Linux Mandrake 8.1, kernel 2.4.8 I installed cyrus-imapd-2.0.16 from the tarball that I downloaded from the cyrus site.

Hi, Please give us some more info, did you - install from source? - on what os? - what cyrus version? Tarjei Jeff Bert wrote: >I know this is a newbie question but with all I had to do to get cyrus >installed my brain hurts... what's a good way to get cyrus started at boot? > >thanks, > >Jeff >

This depends on the OS and cyrus version you are using. If you use RPM on Linux or a port on *BSD, initscripts should be in the package. -Simon > > thanks, > > Jeff
