RE: [Wrapper-user] Wrapper doesn't call stop() during machine restart on Fedora

[Donatas C. <don...@ma...>]

Hi again,

Well I got it running (I meen stopping :) ). It seems it is Fedora specific
(or might be not only Fedora) - I had to modify little bit your start-up
script. As I figured out, Fedora does not run shutdown script with stop
argument until you have lock file in directory /var/lock/subsys/. So I
modified script as follows (the name of my script is
/etc/init.d/frtdcypher):

---------------------------------
start() {
    echo "Starting $APP_LONG_NAME..."
    getpid
    if [ "X$pid" = "X" ]
    then
        touch /var/lock/subsys/frtdcypher                <------- create
lock file
        if [ "X$IGNORE_SIGNALS" = "X" ]
... 

stopit() {
    echo "Stopping $APP_LONG_NAME..."
    getpid
    if [ "X$pid" = "X" ]
    then
        echo "$APP_LONG_NAME was not running."
    else
        rm -f /var/lock/subsys/frtdcypher                 <-------- remove
lock file
        if [ "X$IGNORE_SIGNALS" = "X" ]
...
----------------------------------

This is excerpt from /etc/rc.d/rc (this script executes all the shutdown
scripts):

# First, run the KILL scripts.
for i in /etc/rc$runlevel.d/K* ; do
	check_runlevel "$i" || continue

	# Check if the subsystem is already up.
	subsys=${i#/etc/rc$runlevel.d/K??}
	[ -f /var/lock/subsys/$subsys -o -f /var/lock/subsys/$subsys.init ]
\
		|| continue

	# Bring the subsystem down.
	if LC_ALL=C egrep -q "(killproc |action )" $i ; then
		$i stop
	else
		action $"Stopping $subsys: " $i stop
	fi
done
----------------------------------

Well, seems each different linux distribution has its own rules.

Thank you for hint to check whether shutdown script is being called on
system exit. 

Cheers,
Donatas
