Let's try a different approach. The following is a working script of
your rails:
---------------------------
#!/bin/sh
# PROVIDE: rails
# KEYWORD: nojail shutdown
. /etc/rc.subr
name="rails"
start_cmd="${name} start"
stop_cmd="${name} stop"
rails() {
case ${rc_arg} in
start)
echo -n "Starting ${name}: "
echo -n "1 "
echo -n "2 "
echo "3"
;;
stop)
echo -n "Stopping ${name}: "
echo -n "3 "
echo -n "2 "
echo "1"
;;
*)
echo "dddzzzzz"
esac
}
load_rc_config ${name}
run_rc_command "${1}"
---------------------------
It looks different, but this is the new way how the OS fires things up.
Place this script as "/usr/local/etc/rc.d/rails". Don't add the
extension to it (.sh). The use of extensions is old school. Chmod it to
555 (or 755).
Now give it a spin:
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/rails start
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/rails stop
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/rails restart
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/rails blah
See what happens and then boot your machine. You'll see how it starts
and stops. Once you're satisfied, tweak it to your needs.
If you want to control all aspects of the thing then you should read:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/configtuning-starting-services.html
Also read the rc.d(8) and all of its rc.* related man pages.
You can get lots of good examples in "/etc/rc.d/". For instance
"/etc/rc.d/usbd" is the simplest of them all.
Let us know how it goes.
Regards,
Mikhail.
