I just subscribed to this list for a single purpose: Report one bug and
it's fix... I have been redirected here my Helen, moderator of the
firebird-general list. I HOPE that here this will find it's way to
someone who can fix it :)
It's about FirebirdSS-1.5.6.5026-0.i686.tar.gz install in Mandriva
Linux, and is probably present in other versions too.
The problem is that after running the install.sh script, firebird runs
ok, but after a reboot it doen't load anymore. This is caused because
the initialization script is configured as pririty 20 and thus is loaded
too early. It has some dependencies and should be loaded much later,
recomended priotity for what I could find should be 80.
To fix this, the file
buildroot.tar.gz/opt/firebird/misc/firebird.init.d.mandrake
in line 3 that contains;
# chkconfig: 345 20 80
Should be
# chkconfig: 345 80 20
this is a parameter for chkconfig meaning: 345=> to be used in these
runlevels, 80=> start priority, 20=> stop priority.
As a workaround after installing the buggy version, the startup links
can be renamed with this:
mv -fv /etc/rc3.d/S20firebird /etc/rc3.d/S80firebird
mv -fv /etc/rc4.d/S20firebird /etc/rc4.d/S80firebird
mv -fv /etc/rc5.d/S20firebird /etc/rc5.d/S80firebird
I hope that this finds it's way for a fix. Thanks,
Alain
