 |
|
| I installed Abyss 2.3.2 on Kubuntu 6.10 Edgy Eft, and had no problems. But what I want to do now is install Abyss as a service to start automatically at boot. Does anybody know how to do this? |

jaygajay,
Setting Abyss Web Server in the startup sequence of your operating system depends on the distribution you are using. Here are the instructions for Ubuntu/Debian (but we have not tested them, so your feedback is welcome):
* Log in to your root account
* Create a text file called /etc/init.d/abyssws and copy the following in it (do not forget to update the value of ABYSSWS_HOME in the script):
| Code: |
#! /bin/sh
#
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: abyssws
# Required-Start:
# Should-Start:
# Required-Stop:
# Should-Stop:
# Default-Start: 3 5
# Default-Stop: 0 1 2 6
# Short-Description: abyssws (Abyss Web Server)
# Description: Start Abyss Web Server HTTP service
### END INIT INFO
#SET THE FOLLOWING LINE TO YOUR Abyss Web Server INSTALLATION DIRECTORY
export ABYSSWS_HOME=/home/john/abyssws
RETVAL=0
# See how we were called.
case "$1" in
start)
cd $ABYSSWS_HOME
echo -n "Starting Abyss Web Server daemon: "
startproc $ABYSSWS_HOME/abyssws -d
RETVAL=$?
echo
[ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && touch /var/lock/subsys/abyssws
rc_status -v
;;
stop)
echo -n "Stopping Abyss Web Server daemon: "
$ABYSSWS_HOME/abyssws --stop
RETVAL=$?
echo
[ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && rm -f /var/lock/subsys/abyssws
rc_status -v
;;
restart)
echo -n "Restarting Abyss Web Server daemon: "
$ABYSSWS_HOME/abyssws --restart
RETVAL=$?
echo
rc_status
;;
*)
echo "Usage: $0 {start|stop|restart}"
exit 1
;;
esac
# EOF |
* Setup permissions to execute for /etc/init.d/abyssws by executing:
| Code: | | chmod 744 /etc/init.d/abyssws |
* Run the update-rc.d command to have the necessary links created in the rcX.d directories:
| Code: | | update-rc.d abyssws defaults |
* Test that everything is running fine by starting abyssws manually from the initd system:
| Code: | | /etc/init.d/abyssws start |
* To stop it, run:
| Code: | | /etc/init.d/abyssws stop |
* From now on, when you boot your computer, abyssws will be launched automatically.
* If you ever want to remove abyssws from the startup sequence, run:
| Code: | | update-rc.d -f abyssws remove |

When I do that I get:
| Code: | Starting Abyss Web Server daemon: /etc/init.d/abyssws: 52: startproc: not found
/etc/init.d/abyssws: 52: rc_status: not found
|
And yes. ABYSSWS_HOME is set to my right installation directory. |

jaygajay,
Sorry, there were some errors in the file (it has been adapted from another Linux distribution).
Here is the updated code:
| Code: |
#! /bin/sh
#
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: abyssws
# Required-Start:
# Should-Start:
# Required-Stop:
# Should-Stop:
# Default-Start: 3 5
# Default-Stop: 0 1 2 6
# Short-Description: abyssws (Abyss Web Server)
# Description: Start Abyss Web Server HTTP service
### END INIT INFO
#SET THE FOLLOWING LINE TO YOUR Abyss Web Server INSTALLATION DIRECTORY
export ABYSSWS_HOME=/home/john/abyssws
RETVAL=0
# See how we were called.
case "$1" in
start)
cd $ABYSSWS_HOME
echo -n "Starting Abyss Web Server daemon: "
$ABYSSWS_HOME/abyssws -d
RETVAL=$?
echo
[ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && touch /var/lock/subsys/abyssws
;;
stop)
echo -n "Stopping Abyss Web Server daemon: "
$ABYSSWS_HOME/abyssws --stop
RETVAL=$?
echo
[ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && rm -f /var/lock/subsys/abyssws
;;
restart)
echo -n "Restarting Abyss Web Server daemon: "
$ABYSSWS_HOME/abyssws --restart
RETVAL=$?
echo
;;
*)
echo "Usage: $0 {start|stop|restart}"
exit 1
;;
esac
# EOF |
