Startup script on RH ES 4

Hello,

I’m new in the linux world, so far I was able to install and start domino manually or thru the “startserver” script provided in the redbooks.

Now I would like to start the server automatically during the server startup but I’m still not able to make the “domino” script working properly.

From the System boot log I’m receiving this :

Nov 16 18:16:56 localhost domino: Starting domino:

Nov 16 18:16:56 localhost rc: Starting domino: succeeded

But Domino is not started (no process in the server monitor).

I’m using this script to start domino :

#!/bin/sh

A startup script for the Lotus Domino 6 server

chkconfig: 345 95 5

description: This script is used to start the domino \

server as a background process.\

Usage /etc/init.d/domino start|stop

This script assumes that you are using the performance tweaks

detailed in the Domino 6 for Linux redbook and that these tweaks

are stored in a directory called lib in the Domino Data directory.

If you are not using these tweaks, you should replace the line starting with

su - $DOM_USER -c "LD_PRELOAD…

with the following line

su - $DOM_USER -c “$DOM_PROG/server -jc -c” > /dev/null 2>&1 &

You should change the 3 following variables to reflect your environment.

DOM_HOME is the variable that tells the script where the Domino Data resides

DOM_HOME=/local/notesdata

DOM_USER is the Linux account used to run the Domino 6 server

DOM_USER=lorandomino

DOM_PROG is the location of the Domino executables

DOM_PROG=/opt/lotus/bin

start() {

echo -n "Starting domino: "

if [ -f $DOM_HOME/.jsc_lock ]; then

            rm $DOM_HOME/.jsc_lock

    fi

su - $DOM_USER -c "$DOM_PROG/server -jc -c" > /dev/null 2>&1 &

return 0

}

stop() {

echo -n "Stopping domino: "

su - $DOM_USER -c "$DOM_PROG/server -q"

return 0

}

case “$1” in

start)

start

;;

stop)

stop

;;

*)

echo "Usage: domino {start|stop}"

exit 1

esac

Can someone tell me if there is something wrong in this script or where I can find on my system some logs telling why Domino is not starting…

Thanks a lot in advance !!!

hi, i have been using unix for few years but up to r5 only…sun solaria mostly.

first u need to confirm the variables are correct - ie. dom_home( path correct) dom_user (user correct and owner of the notes program folder)

the .profile for the notes user should contain some path specified or settings.

use the command :-

sh -x ./startupscript

  • this would display everything, hope this helps.
