Re: Starting Apache2 and MySQL Automagically? rc.conf woes. . .SOLVED
|
|
|
User error, as I suspected.
I copied the scripts from /usr/pkgsrc/www/apache2/files/ rather than
/usr/pkg/share/examples/rc.d/apache to /etc/rc.d. Now that I've done
that, and set up "apache=YES" in rc.conf [also for mysqld], everything
works as it should.
Thanks for listening and pointing.

Nothing shows up in the httpd error logs. I'll check paths etc. and
give it a try later today. This machine is in use, but fortunately for
me it is an internal database web server for my company, never seen by
the outside world.

I believe that both `apache=YES' and `apache_start="start"' are
required in /etc/rc.conf for the apache script. The way to set up
apache is different if support for encryption is required.
Cheers,

But the thing is, it doesn't work on this machine. The apache script
file is there, the path is correct in rc.local, the lines are
uncommented, and it doesn't start.
I have to start apache manually with "apachectl start".

"apachectl start" works as advertised. I'll try running apache from the
rc.d script later today.

I think that apache must be started from /etc/rc.local. There are
three lines related with apache in that file, all commented by
default, just after the "Add your local daemons here." comment.
Once uncommented, rc.local will look for the /usr/pkg/etc/rc.d/apache
initialization file and, if it exists, run it as `apache start'.
