Yet Another Linux Newbie Question:

I’m having trouble customizing my slimsever service start parameters.

I’m editing /etc/sysconfig/slimserver and changing the line:


Code:
--------------------
    SLIMSERVER_CFG="/etc/slimserver.conf"
--------------------

To


Code:
--------------------
    SLIMSERVER_CFG="/etc/slim-data/slimserver.conf"
--------------------

I’ve set the appropriate permissions on /etc/slim-data

When I attempt a ./etc/init.d/slimserver start

…the daemon doesn’t start and it gives no error message.  When I change
the line in /etc/sysconfig/slimserver back, the daemon starts just
fine.

I’m running Fedora core 4. Any ideas as to what I’m doing wrong here? I really don’t have a clue as to how to go about modifying linux server
startup parameters.  I'm just guessing that this is where I should
start.

I just did the following:

mkdir /etc/slimdata
cp /etc/slimserver.conf /etc/slimdata/slimserver.conf
vi /etc/sysconfig/slimserver
  => SLIMSERVER_CFG="/etc/slimdata/slimserver.conf"
chown -R slimserver:slimserver /etc/slimdata
/etc/init.d/slimserver restart

Worked fine for me.

One possibility - do you have SELinux enabled? I don't, so that might be something to do with it.
