Erza,<br><br>I am on Centos and bash, Rails 1.2.2, Ruby 1.8.4, BackgrounDrb old version (the 0.1.x version right before 0.2... Is the depend() section peculiar only to Gentoo? If not, anything one needs to do for this?<br>
<br>I wrote a script just similar to this (w/o paying attention to the depend() section) and have capistrano before_restart task invoke the "/etc/init.d/backgroundrbd restart" (which is just stop and then start). However, this problem of backgroundrb's exiting after cap task's successful completion occurs (yes, no hanging in cap's process, but backgroundrb quits even though it is started in -d mode; the pid log file is there, but the process is no longer). Prepending with "nohup" in start seems to work, but I thought by using
init.d style, one needn't worry about the nohup problem, either. Any insight? (Or is this a 0.1.x problem?)<br><br>Thanks,<br>Philip<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 3/12/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">Ezra Zygmuntowicz
