Package: gnugk
Version: 2:2.2.3-2-2
Severity: important
By default, the numbering for startup and shutdown scripts for gnugk and
postgresql is the same, so the alphabetical order makes gnugk start
before postgresql.
If you use a PostgreSQL database from gnugk, you're stuck with gnugk
which fails to start, since the database is not ready yet.
If you start gnugk manually, once postgresql is ready, it's OK.
Similarly, when shutting down, gnugk should be stopped before PostgreSQL
and not after.
I've seen this problem on these two software, but it probably
exists with several other interdependant software.
For example we know that gnugk can depend on postgresql being ready,
but we know for sure that postgresql will never care to see if
gnugk has to be ready before being able to start with no problem.
More generally, database servers (Bind, MySQL, Slapd, PostgreSQL,
etc...) should be started **before** any other service which can depend
on them (e.g. Apache), and stopped **after** all services which
can depend on them have been stopped.
Or did I do something wrong ?
Thx.
