I'm baffled.... I can start this by running "/etc/init.d/mythbackend
start" after the computer starts but when its starting up it just says
its starting but never does.
How on earth would I trouble shoot something like this if it isn't going
to tell me why it isn't starting it? And can somebody remind me why
source functions and the normal every day linux way of doing this wasn't
good enough for debian?
Thanks, this is what I'm trying to get to start right after MySQL
starts... which it tries to do and looks like it does, but doesn't. Any
ideas? I'm on sarge if that matters.
