Fedora 10 Startup script.

[Dipstick]

Hello,

First off I just want to say a big thank you to the devs - This is a really great program!

After using SABnzbd on Ubuntu for so long, I decided to give fedora (10)  a go . I got it up and running without too much trouble. The only problem was the start up script in the wiki didnt work when booting , - it worked fine when doing a /etc/init.d/Sabnzbd start ? so I decided to make a new one which uses the fedora functions.

*****Sabnzbd is running as root using this script ! -I couldn't get it to  use sudo as it needs a tty (Is sudo is setup correctly in fedora)*****

Hopefully this will be of use to someone - If anyone is interested here it is......

        status $prog
	RETVAL=$?
	;;
  *)
	echo $"Usage: $prog {start|stop|status}"
	RETVAL=3
esac

exit $RETVAL

Save the file as  "SABnzbd"  into /etc/rc.d/init.d/ then, as root do a

Code: Select all

chkconfig --add SABnzbd

You may also need to change the path to the ini file - I moved it from the home directory!

Post back and let me know if this work for you or if you have any suggestions!

I think you forgot to add the instruction to make the script file executable...

Apart from that it 's a good script!
