34 <PRE>Andrew the last time I wrote wrt the my crontab script you stated that it was
36 my script that was faulty.
38 I am now using yours and am still getting the same results.
40 Basically I set the script and put a path to it in the crontab.
42 Every ten minutes I not only get an email stating services is starting but I
43 get the expected error in irc stating that it is cancelling the new link as
46 I then look in /lib and find that the .pid file has disappeared (it was there
48 when services started).
50 All I can think is that this element of the config is wrong:
52 # RunGroup
<group
> [OPTIONAL]
53 # Specify the group which Services should run as.
<group
> can be
54 # either a group name or an equals sign (
"=
") followed by a group ID.
55 # If not specified, Services will use the group ID it is started with.
56 # Note that Unix setgid permission on the executable file will do the
57 # same thing, but the setgid permission bit is cleared whenever the
58 # file is modified, while this setting will always be used (if the
59 # system permits it) when Services is started.
62 #RunGroup =
65534 # A common value for the
"nogroup
" group
64 # Umask
<umask
> [RECOMMENDED]
65 # Sets the umask (file creation mask) for Services. This mask is
66 # applied to all data files created by Services, including database
67 # files (which are recreated on every database update) and the process
68 # ID file (PIDFile, below), and indicates which file permission bits
69 # are NOT to be set on those files as an octal value. Common values
70 # are given in the examples below. If not specified, the umask in
71 # place when Services is started will be used.
73 #Umask
077 # Disallows access to all but file owner
74 # (recommended when RunGroup is not set)
75 #Umask
007 # Allows access to members of file group as well
76 # (recommended when RunGroup is set)
78 I have tried various combinations of the above to no avail.
80 Any help or advice would be much appreciated :)
