| I running Arc in Gentoo, and I wrote rc-script for news.arc. It works on Anarki. rc-news.arc (load "news.arc")
(nsv)
/etc/init.d/news #!/sbin/runscript
depend() {
use net
before lighttpd
}
MZSCHEME="/usr/local/bin/mzscheme" # path to mzscheme
ARC_HOME="/usr/local/arc" # path to arc directory
start() {
ebegin "Starting News"
start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --background --make-pidfile \
--pidfile /var/run/news.pid --exec "$MZSCHEME" \
-- --no-init-file --mute-banner --load-cd \
"$ARC_HOME/as.scm" "$ARC_HOME/rc-news.arc"
eend 0 "Failed to start News"
}
stop() {
ebegin "Stopping News"
start-stop-daemon --stop --quiet --pidfile /var/run/news.pid
eend 0 "Failed to stop News"
}
Now, # /etc/init.d/news start
# /etc/init.d/news restart
# /etc/init.d/news stop
In this way stop-start control is possible.See also http://mgiken.com/2008/03/30/144523 (This is my blog, but Japanese version only). |
