[Zope] start script for freebsd?

16 Aug 2001

      Hello everyone,

    i am wondering if there is anyone out there that might be able to assist me in setting up a script to run Zope2.3.3 as a daemon on my freeBSD4.2 server.  I have started with the redhat script by Markoer, and have simply edited the paths to reflect correctly as to my directory structure.  when i attempt to execute the script from shell by typing "/usr/local/etc/rc.d/zope.sh restart", it returns "case: Too many arguements".  this occurs with any arguement that i issue, even none..  when the server is booting, and it is starting local packages, it echos "echo_success: not found".  below is the content of the script:

-=-=-=-=-
case "$1" in
  start)
   # Check if zope is already running
   if [ ! -f /var/lock/subsys/zope ] ; then
      echo -n 'Starting zope daemon: '
      /usr/local/zope/Zope-2.3.3-src/start 2> /dev/null
      i=0
      while [ $i -lt 90 ]; do
         [ -f /usr/local/zope/Zope-2.3.3-src/var/Z2.pid ] && break
         sleep 1 && echo -n "."
         let i=i+1
      done
      if [ $i -ge 90 ] ; then
         echo "Time out."
         exit 1
      else
         cat /usr/local/zope/Zope-2.3.3-src/var/Z2.pid > /var/lock/subsys/zope
         touch /var/lock/subsys/zope
         cat /usr/local/zope/Zope-2.3.3-src/var/Z2.pid > /var/run/zope.pid
         touch /var/run/zope
         echo " OK"
      fi
   else
      echo "zope already running."
   fi
   echo
   ;;
  stop)
   echo -n 'Stopping zope daemon: '
   [ -f /usr/local/zope/Zope-2.3.3-src/var/Z2.pid ] && kill `cat /home/zope/zope/var/Z2.pid`
      rm -f /var/lock/subsys/zope
      rm -f /usr/local/zope/Zope-2.3.3-src/var/Z2.pid
      rm -f /usr/local/zope/Zope-2.3.3-src/var/pcgi.soc
      rm -f /usr/local/zope/Zope-2.3.3-src/var/Data.fs.lock
      rm -f /usr/local/zope/Zope-2.3.3-src/var/zProcessManager.pid
      echo " OK"
   echo
   ;;
  reload|restart)
   $0 stop
   $0 start
   ;;
  status)
   if [ -f /usr/local/zope/Zope-2.3.3-src/var/Z2.pid ] ; then
     cat /usr/local/zope/Zope-2.3.3-src/var/Z2.pid > /var/lock/subsys/zope
     touch /var/lock/subsys/zope
     cat /usr/local/zope/Zope-2.3.3-src/var/Z2.pid > /var/run/zope.pid
     touch /var/run/zope
     echo "zope (pid `head -1 /var/run/zope.pid`) is running..."
   else
     echo "zope not running."
   fi
   ;;
  *)
   echo "Usage: /usr/local/etc/rc.d/zope.sh {start|stop|restart|reload|status}"
   exit 1
esac

note that /var/lock/subsys doesn't exist by default on freeBSD, so for ease of use, i added those directories myself (root owns them).  in saying that, i can only wonder if this is a permission error, but im not sure...  the attribs of the script are 755, executable.

Thank you,
Shaun
