Description Brandon Dimcheff 2006-12-18 09:01:32 UTC
I run a jabber server with more than 1 domain, so I need to have multiple "sm" lines in /etc/jabber/jabberd.cfg.

If you look at /etc/init.d/jabberd, the start() function greps for the service name (first column) and then uses that to grep for the config file name (second column).  Since there are two instances of "sm" in my file, it gets 2 filenames when looking for the config file for "sm", so it fails.  Since multiple instances of sm are required (as far as I know) to run a jabber server over multiple domains, this will likely effect anyone who is attempting to do so.

Could you send me your /etc/jabber/jabberd.cfg?
Comment 2 Brandon Dimcheff 2006-12-18 16:29:21 UTC
/etc/jabber/jabber.cfg:

(comments removed)

router      /etc/jabber/router.xml
resolver    /etc/jabber/resolver.xml
sm          /etc/jabber/sm.wieldim.com.xml
sm          /etc/jabber/sm.dimcheff.com.xml
s2s         /etc/jabber/s2s.xml

It's reading the correct files now, but it still won't launch 2 instances of sm.  I get the following output:

bdimchef@link ~ $ sudo ./jabberd start

I think you might need to specify some pid files in start-stop-daemon.  The pid files themselves look like they're created by the individual jabber daemons, but the start-stop-daemon thing looks like it's just checking ps or something.    (sorry, I'm not that familiar with gentoo's rc system)

Anyhow, I couldn't find any option for start-stop-daemon that told it to launch multiple instances of the same binary.  I thought about writing something to grab the pid file locations from the files in /etc/jabber and passing them to start-stop-daemon, but that seemed like a pretty big change and I figured there may be a better way to handle this.

Thanks,
Brandon

Could you try this patch? It tries to workaround this issue.

Great - sync your tree and re-emerge jabberd.
