I think this has already been addressed in later versions of the ebuild (from 7.3.0 onwards, I think), through the addition of the following to the start-stop-daemon:
--startas /usr/sbin/${scname} --pidfile ${pidfile} --chuid ${scuser}
From memory I think the key was the --startas parameter.
Could you try that and verify whether that also fixes it for you? If you need to stay with SqueezeCenter 7.2.1 for other reasons then I think you've already fixed it by effectively using the init.d script from the later ebuild anyway.
(In reply to comment #1) > Could you try that and verify whether that also fixes it for you? Thanks, yes, perfect. Many thanks; on that basis I'll mark this as verified and closed. Closing. |
I couldn't start squeezecenter after upgrading to 7.2.1. Error: "/usr/bin/perl already running". This fixed it: - --start --exec /usr/bin/perl /usr/sbin/${scname} --chuid ${scuser} \ + --start --exec /usr/sbin/${scname} --chuid ${scuser} \ this is the version header in the file: # $Header: /var/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/media-sound/squeezecenter/files/squeezecenter.init.d,v 1.2 2008/11/11 14:03:15 lavajoe Exp $ Hope this is helpful. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: sudo /etc/init.d/squeezecenter start My platform: 2.6.25-gentoo-r6
