>Description:
The rc script does not find the real pid, and some functions do not behave
well, like stop or restart.
See this command output example:
----8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<----
# typeset -f psg
psg ()
{
ps -ax | grep $1 | grep -v grep
}
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/postgrey.sh start
Starting postgrey.
# psg perl
25098 ?? Ss 0:00.04 [perl5.8.6]
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/postgrey.sh stop
postgrey not running? (check /var/run/postgrey.pid).
# cat /var/run/postgrey.pid
25098
# psg perl
25098 ?? Is 0:00.04 [perl5.8.6]
#
----8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<----
I don't know why ps(8) does not show the script name, like other perl
scripts. Maybe its a side effect of using Net::Server
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
I could workaround the bug by putting the following lines in /etc/rc.conf:
----8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<----
postgrey_enable="YES"
if [ "${pidfile}" = "${postgrey_pidfile}" ] ; then
stop_cmd='test -f ${pidfile} && kill `cat ${pidfile} && rm ${pidfile}`'
stop_postcmd=
status_cmd='test -f ${pidfile} && if kill -0 `cat ${pidfile}` 2> /dev/null ; then echo "${name} is running." ; else echo "${name} is not running." ; return 1 ; fi'
fi
----8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<----
But a probable better fix is to adjust /etc/rc.subr or postgrey startup
script.
