RE: [Catalyst] upstart script for Starman-based app? Errata to Starman-apache article
There is some important errata to the advent Calendar article posted at: http://brainbuz.org/techinfo/2011/12/deploying-catalyst-with-starman-and-apache/ Unfortunately I have some frustration with upstart, I’m hoping to have better luck with the newest version in Ubuntu Precise. I will post a follow up article if I make progress with the new version of upstart. You may want to consider using the rc.local method if upstart is too problematic.

RE: [Catalyst] upstart script for Starman-based app?
I do something similar with FreeBSD. My install consists of a local install of perl, cat, dbic, etc to get my app running. I use nginx from system configured as a proxy. Now, I see a lot of people using Starman with nginx and you are asking for Starman, so that's doable... Anyway I use nginx to proxy to the fastcgi process... I'm pretty sure this isn't starman, but then, I don't know for sure. My point in this is that I have not written rc scripts for my catalyst app, and probably won't. There exists another way which, for me as a standard user on this system is pretty much perfect I use @reboot in the crontab. Perhaps this will work for you as well?

Maybe it will be helpful to see an upstart script that works, and try to adapt it. Just write an upstart script that executes su - your user -c'x'. Or write a shell script that starts the app in the right way (when run as root) and execute that from upstart. Except you do not want to run the app as the same user which installed it in production. You also don't want to run it as root (of course), but running it as your user gives the app permissions to re-write any of your files, including it's own source code… Cheers t0m ** Yes, good tip for not running in production with the same user as the one that installed it. But for the moment I just want to test the upstart script so I will run it with the same user. No luck until now. I have tried the following script (site.conf): start on (mysql and runlevel [2345]) stop on runlevel [016] env PERL5LIB=/home/teddy/perl5/lib1/lib/perl5/i686-linux:/home/teddy/perl5/lib1/lib/perl5 env PATH=/home/teddy/perl5/perlbrew/bin:/home/teddy/perl5/perlbrew/perls/perl-5.14.2/bin:/home/teddy/perl5/lib1/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games exec su - teddy -c'/srv/BRK/start_all_modules.sh' But it didn't start the web server at all. Then I copied the environment vars definitions in the script start_all_modules.sh which starts starman and this way it started the web server. But the problem is that I can't stop it using upstart because it gives the error unknown instance. If I use the command status site, it gives the result stop/waiting even though the server is running. root@ubuntu:/srv/log# start site; status site site start/running, process 28528 site start/running, process 28528 root@ubuntu:/srv/log# status site site stop/waiting It appears that immediately after it starts, it passes to the stop/waiting mode. I tried to add in the script: instance $UPSTART_EVENTS env UPSTART_EVENTS= but no change. Then I added: expect daemon After this change, it seems to start well and using status site doesn't show it as stopped anymore. But if I want to stop it using stop site, it just sits and waits and I don't get the prompt back so after a long time I need to kill it and all the starman processes are running fine. So I have tried expect fork instead. But with this configuration it blocks when I use start site and it doesn't return the prompt, and of course, it doesn't start the server. So I am surely missing something, and I don't know why I can't stop it using upstart. Thanks.

From: Morad IGMIR mig...@alliancemca.com Subject: RE: [Catalyst] upstart script for Starman-based app? So you're looking for an /etc/init.d/ init script ? Thank you for your script. I hope I will be able to use an upstart script, because upstart requires much less code and it is more powerful than the old SysV init style scripts, but if I won't find a solution for the problem I found in my script, I'll probably go back and create a script based on yours.

Octavian == Octavian Rasnita orasn...@gmail.com writes: Octavian Thanks. I know about it, but it doesn't solve what I want... to Octavian start the web server automaticly when the computer starts after Octavian MySQL was started. Note that if you'd using Catalyst::Model::DBIC::Schema, you don't need to wait for MySQL to come up, as it does lazy connecting. If someone issues a request during the mysql startup time, they'll get a 500 error, which you can handle via an error document and is much better than a plain 404. -- Eden Cardim Need help with your Catalyst or DBIx::Class project?
