Forum OpenACS Q&A: Re: Aolserver 3.5 and daemontools

Posted by Tom Jackson on

svc is trying to start log/run, probably /service/yourbuggyservice/log/run? You probably have a log directory in the same directory as your main run file? svc thinks you want to direct the output of this process to the log process (I'm guessing). You might try a different directory for your main run file.

The contents of readproctitle will not change if you were to shut down the offending process, it just stores the old data so you can look at it.

Thanks for the explanation - there was indeed a /web/myalmostbugfreeservice/log directory, where daemontools put in a supervise directory. Seems that a directory with the name 'log' has a special meaning for daemontools - I didn't know that.

The problem with starting up aolserver 3.5.6 persists though.
