Fedora Core 5 ISP, Major Problems

Here is the strartup script for proftpd on my system:

Code:

  #!/bin/sh
# $Id: proftpd.init,v 1.1 2004/02/26 17:54:30 thias Exp $
#
# proftpd
                 This shell script takes care of starting and stopping
#                proftpd.
#
# chkconfig: - 80 30
# description: ProFTPD is an enhanced FTP server with a focus towards \
#              simplicity, security, and ease of configuration. \
#              It features a very Apache-like configuration syntax, \
#              and a highly customizable server infrastructure, \
#              including support for multiple 'virtual' FTP servers, \
#              anonymous FTP, and permission-based directory visibility.

[ -x /usr/sbin/proftpd ] || exit 0

RETVAL=0

prog="proftpd"

start() {
         echo -n $"Starting $prog: "
        daemon proftpd
        RETVAL=$?
        echo
            [ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && touch /var/lock/subsys/proftpd
}

stop() {
        echo -n $"Shutting down $prog: "
        killproc proftpd
        RETVAL=$?
        echo
            [ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && rm -f /var/lock/subsys/proftpd
}

# See how we were called.
case "$1" in
  start)
        start
             ;;
  stop)
       stop
           ;;
  status)
         status proftpd
        RETVAL=$?
   ;;

       stop
         ecstart
        daemon p;;
  condrestart)   
        if [ -f /var/lock/subsys/proftpd ]; then
          stop
          start
        fi
       ;;
  reload)
        kecho -n $"Re-reading $prog configuration: "
        killproc proftpd -HUP
        RETVAL=$?
        echo
       ;;
  *)
       echo "Usage: $prog {start|stop|restart|reload|condrestart|status}"
       exit 1
esac

exit $RETVAL ;;

 

Ok, make /etc/init.d/startx look like this:

Code:

#!/bin/bash
# $Id: startx.init,v 1.1 2004/02/26 17:54:30 thias Exp $
#
# startx
#               This shell script takes care of starting and stopping
#                X.
#
# chkconfig: - 80 30
# description: blabla
# processname: startx

startx

 

Following error at boot:
Line 5 command not found

Thanks Falko

 

This worked at start up; but nothing happened, still get the same blue screeen.

Code:

 
#!/bin/bash
# $Id: startx.init,v 1.1 2004/02/26 17:54:30 thias Exp $
# chkconfig: - 80 30
# description: blabla
# processname: startx

 

Can you post the exact content of your script?

 

This is it

Code:

 
#!/bin/bash
# $Id: startx.init,v 1.1 2004/02/26 17:54:30 thias Exp $
# chkconfig: - 80 30
# description: blabla
# processname: startx

Here something I discovered. If I entered the following:

Code:

kdm -nodaemon

through ssh session I come up to the login screen, which is what I'm looking for. I'm wondering how can I take this and fix it at startup. Maybe a script?

Now for the root user login I'm suppose to edit:

Code:

nano /etc/X11/xdm/kdmrc
allowrootlogin = true

But the file it's not there.

 

It must be

Code:

#!/bin/bash
# $Id: startx.init,v 1.1 2004/02/26 17:54:30 thias Exp $
#
# startx
#               This shell script takes care of starting and stopping
#                X.
#
# chkconfig: - 80 30
# description: blabla
# processname: startx

[B][COLOR="Red"]startx[/COLOR][/B]

 

You can add this to the /etc/init.d/startx script as well.

Now for the root user login I'm suppose to edit:

Try to create it.

 

Finally!!!

This worked:

Code:

#!/bin/bash
# $Id: startx.init,v 1.1 2004/02/26 17:54:30 thias Exp $
#
# startx
#               This shell script takes care of starting and stopping
#                X.
#
# chkconfig: - 80 30

# processname: nodaemon

-kdm nodaemon

Thanks Falko!!!!!!!!!

 

For some reason it kills the startup scripts for:
httpd
ispconfig
proftpd

 

Are these services "on" in runlevels 2, 3, and 5 when you run

Code:

chkconfig --list

?

 

checked the service and 2, 3, and 5, are set to on, on all of them.

Thanks
Falko

 

Hm, then the services should start... Can you reboot and try again?
