Quote:is there a centos/fedora compartible init script somewhere ?
these are all debian functions like pidofproc is pidof in redhat

those aren't "debian" functions, please see Linux Standard Base.

Distros should try to be LSB compliant

The start_stop_daemon is a debian function I think because I didn't see this function on any other distro like slackware, SuSe, Redhat, CentOS and Gentoo.

can you tell me where start_stop_daemon is being used so I can fix it?
start_daemon and killproc are being used and both are specified in the LSB 3.1 specs

Here is the init.d which comes with the trunk:

Code:

case "$1" in
  start)
    echo "Starting $DESC..."
    start-stop-daemon --start --verbose --exec $DAEMON -- -p $PID
    ;;
  stop)
    start-stop-daemon --stop --verbose --pidfile $PID --exec $DAEMON --retry 5
    rm $PID
    ;;
  restart|force-reload)
    start-stop-daemon --stop --verbose --pidfile $PID --exec $DAEMON --retry 5
    rm $PID
    echo "Starting $DESC..."
    start-stop-daemon --start --verbose --exec $DAEMON -- -p $PID
    ;;
  status)

and on centos it was the same or it is the same when the init script which I made for CentOS isn't added yet. As you can see the start-stop-daemon is used for everything. The startscript which works for CentOS can be found here: http://mirrors.penguinfriends.org/ISPCP/...pcp_daemon

Can you point me to the file from where you are reading those lines?
This is the current ispcp_daemon init.d script for Debian:

It was in the Trunk from 14.10.2007 but even killproc, pidofproc log and start_daemon are not available under Slackware, CentOS and Redhat. So they need their own individual start-scripts to work. Because they have no /lib/lsb/init-functions.
