Title: services.pid is not being created
Post by: czar on December 05, 2009, 04:19:10 PM

Perhaps someone could explain what is going wrong in this set-up and why isn't services creating a pid file?  I'm trying to ensure anope runs on reboot and that it restarts if the service isn't running. 

What happens is the service does run on crontab but the pid is never created.  So every 2 minutes services tries to reconnect and I get "11:08 !irc.example.com *** Permanent Global Q:line added for OperServ on Sat Dec  5 16:08:29 && 2009 GMT (from services.example.com: Reserved for services)" until I manually create the pid via ps aux|grep services && echo 25700 >> ~/bin/anope/bin/services.pid.  As soon as I create that file the service quits trying to reconnect and everything is fine (until reboot.)

Hmm, apparently our 1.9.x example.chk isn't correct.  services.pid is stored in ~/anope/data, not ~/anope/bin.  We'll have to fix that.

Updated to the latest dev build (1.9.1-p1-source) and noticed example.chk has been fixed.  Ty ;-)
