Your script looks very clean except for one issue with the check_errors function. You're removing the lockfile in this routine, which is required for expected operation if one of the document building commands fails. You are also using the check_errors procedure for testing whether the lockfile generation worked or not. That means if you run this script while another instance is already running, it will not be able to grab the lockfile, but will then forcibly remove the lockfile without owning it (a BadThing :). It looks like the easiest way to handle this is to special case the create_lockfile error checking (ie: put the logic inside the create_lockfile function). If you want the lockfile forcibly grabbed after some amount of time (ie: 8 to 24 hours or so...something that's much longer than document generation should normally take), you can do this with the -l switch, ie: lockfile -l 72000 ... would force removal of any existing lockfile older than 20 hours. - -- Charles Steinkuehler [EMAIL PROTECTED] -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFEKxcHLywbqEHdNFwRAgdLAJ9aSDUi05ATZ4uCC/qZgQQmyjPSLQCgxmq0 HycMVYykWU01rZ4KdGwcDtw= =kWfM -END PGP SIGNATURE- --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.

At the end of running, it says "The > command failed. Usually this is due to an error in the configuration > file." Are you trying to start your init script from webconf? If so, the problem is that webconf looks for a running process matching the init script.If you are making your own .lwp for webconf, you can customize the behavior by modifying the call to svcstat.sh See http://leaf.sourceforge.net/doc/guide/webconf-howto.html, section "4.3.4.3 svcstat.sh" for the complete details. If you are just using the basic webconf.lrp, this is a "false positive." The init script was run, but webconf has no way of knowing that, so it reports the command failed. You can ignore the failure message, or you can look at /var/webconf/www/lrcfg.cgi under the section "Daemon Status" for how other exceptions were handled. > > Is there any way around this?
