<font face="Arial">I still get the same results (or non-results)
unfortunately.</font> I have tried the following options:<br>
<br>
1) Tried running twistd by giving the fully qualified path:
/usr/bin/twistd.<br>
2) Tried running the .tac file together with the -g twistd switch
instead.<br>
3) Tried the --syslog switch to see if I can find anything in the logs.<br>
4) Tried running it without supplying custom log and pid files.<br>
<br>
It almost seems to me that twistd thinks that it started the daemon
fine, although it clearly does not. Can anyone tell me if twistd
returns any error codes, maybe I can check that? Please note again,
running it with "/etc/init.d/ghserver start" still works flawlessly, it
is only when I try and run during the boot process.<br>
<br>
I am starting to think that I should perhaps try running it from
/etc/rc.local instead.<br>

My understanding is the twistd will have a default log twistd.log. </div>

Maartin, I have a feeling that you may be correct. I'm going to see if
I can't set the python path within the script.<br>
<br>
Tim, the only reason I can see anything in /var/logs/messages is
because I use the "logger" tool to log those messages directly from the
bash shell script. See the script below.<br>
<br>
Kind Regards,<br>

My application is being executed using twistd as per documentation. All
is working fine but I need to have the service start automatically at
boot time.<br>
<br>
So as a test I've created a script in /etc/init.d/ which looks like
this:<br>
<font face="Courier New, Courier, monospace"><br>
#! /bin/sh<br>
### BEGIN INIT INFO<br>
# Provides: ghserver<br>
# Required-Start: $local_fs $remote_fs $network $syslog<br>
# Required-Stop: $local_fs $remote_fs $network $syslog<br>
# Default-Start: 2 3 4 5<br>
# Default-Stop: 0 1 6<br>
# Short-Description: Start/stop GHServer server<br>
### END INIT INFO<br>
<br>
logger "GHServer: Start script executed"<br>
GH_SERVER_PATH="/home/myname/Python/ghserver"<br>
export PYTHONPATH="$GH_SERVER_PATH:$PYTHONPATH"<br>
<br>
case "$1" in<br>
start)<br>
logger "GHServer: Starting"<br>
echo "Starting GHServer..."<br>
twistd -y "$GH_SERVER_PATH/ghserverapp.py" -l
"$GH_SERVER_PATH/ghserver.log" --pidfile "$GH_SERVER_PATH/twistd.pid"<br>
;;<br>
stop)<br>
logger "GHServer: Stopping"<br>
echo "Stopping GHServer..."<br>
kill `cat $GH_SERVER_PATH/twistd.pid`<br>
;;<br>
*)<br>
logger "GHServer: Invalid usage"<br>
echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/ghserver {start|stop}"<br>
exit 1<br>
;;<br>
esac<br>
<br>
exit 0</font><br>
<br>
<br>
This works fine when running /etc/init.d/ghserver start and</font><font
face="Arial"> /etc/init.d/ghserver stop. The script also run when I
boot since the logger actually logs the "GHServer: Starting" text to
the /var/log/messages file. However, my service actually does not
start. There is no pid to be found anywhere, there are no error logs
anywhere, just nothing. I might be doing something wrong here but is
there someone who's gone through this process and can provide some
samples how they did it? Any help will be greatly appreciated.<br>
<br>
Kind Regards,<br>
Don<br>
