Hi David,
Do we need to fix your problems before we fix my problem?
By the way, I've been poking around to see how other init scripts deal
with the fact that /var/run is flushed after every reboot.
This is how /etc/init.d/klogd makes sure that it has a subdirectory in
/var/run:
case "$1" in
start)
log_begin_msg "Starting kernel log daemon..."
# create klog-writeable pid and fifo directory
mkdir -p /var/run/klogd
chown klog:klog /var/run/klogd
mkfifo -m 700 $kmsgpipe
chown klog:klog $kmsgpipe
And this is how /etc/init.d/slony1 does it:
prepare_start() {
mkdir -p /var/run/slony1 \
&& chown postgres:postgres /var/run/slony1/ \
&& chmod 2775 /var/run/slony1/
}
So, it does not look like a standard method exists. I would like to get
some really good sysadmins to help us with this. There really should be
a standard way to do this.
Matt
