Debugging your init configuration,
Nico Schottelius 2005-06-17 (Last Modified: 2005-06-17)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As writing an init configuration is not the easiest thing,
here are some problems (P) and debugging hints (H):
P: There's no output!
H: If you don't start a service which outputs something there won't be any,
cinit starts up silently.
P: Service XYZ seems not to work?
H: Try the following in your shell:
cd /etc/cinit/the-service; ./on "$(on.params)"
If that succeeds it has perhaps something missing which should have been
started before.
H: Create a test-service, which contains the following:
on: link to /bin/echo
on.params: "A test string" (with or without the quotes)
Now add the test-service to the needs directory of service XYZ.
If you see output the next time, the service is started.
Otherwise you forgot to make another service dependent on service
XYZ.
P: How can I test if a non-outputting service successfully started?
H: Create another service, which depends on your service and make
it echo something.
P: Does that profile support really work?
H: Try that: cprofile:NONEXISTENT and you'll see.
