| bizhanMona | HI is there a depency between upstart and dbus? Thx | 21:32 |
|---|---|---|
| === supster_ is now known as supster | ||
| supster | Does anyone see any issues with this Upstart job? Are there any improvements to make? https://gist.github.com/4678285 | 23:20 |
| SpamapS | bizhanMona: yes, upstart uses dbus for some things. | 23:23 |
| SpamapS | supster: start on startup is *way* too early | 23:23 |
| SpamapS | supster: that event happens before any filesystems have been mounted | 23:23 |
| SpamapS | supster: and before networking is available | 23:23 |
| SpamapS | supster: also chdir is a declarative bit, so you can move that out of the script | 23:24 |
| SpamapS | supster: further, newer versions of upstart will log all output at /var/log/upstart/$jobname.log ... | 23:24 |
| SpamapS | supster: so you can consider just letting that be your log file.. | 23:25 |
| supster | SpamapS: I guess I want start on runlevel [2345] then? | 23:25 |
| supster | it will log STDOUT and STDERR there? | 23:25 |
| xnox | yes. | 23:26 |
| SpamapS | supster: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1591130/ | 23:29 |
| supster | runlevel [016], not just [016] - right? | 23:30 |
| supster | and how is that different than "on shutdown"? | 23:30 |
| SpamapS | supster: right, sorry I messed that up. .runlevel [016] | 23:34 |
| SpamapS | supster: shutdown is not an event | 23:34 |
| SpamapS | supster: that job will never stop | 23:34 |
| supster | SpamapS: I see | 23:34 |
| supster | SpamapS: if I don't use `set -a` i don't get the env variables from $CONF_PATH | 23:34 |
| supster | SpamapS: is there something else wrong? | 23:34 |
| SpamapS | supster: ah so $CONF_PATH doesn't export | 23:35 |
| supster | correct ... should it? | 23:35 |
| supster | i am not sure what the convention is for having a conf file that is just env variables | 23:35 |
| SpamapS | supster: well... | 23:37 |
| SpamapS | supster: if it were me I'd do it in /etc/init/jobname.override as env statements | 23:37 |
| supster | SpamapS: for more context: I am passing things like the port to listen on and the database connection string to my app | 23:39 |
| supster | SpamapS: what would the override file look like? just env stanzas? would those be automatically a part of my app's env or do i still need to pass them somehow? | 23:41 |
| SpamapS | supster: that override file is parsed just like an upstart file | 23:44 |
| SpamapS | supster: the difference is just that you can treat it more like a config file | 23:44 |
| SpamapS | supster: actually why not just do those env statements in the .conf ? | 23:44 |
| SpamapS | err | 23:44 |
| SpamapS | supster: in the upstart job file I mean | 23:44 |
| supster | SpamapS: yeah.... my original thought was that it would be better to separate the upstart logic and the application configuration | 23:48 |
| supster | SpamapS: because different servers will need to run with different configuration | 23:48 |
| supster | SpamapS: but maybe it can just all be in that file | 23:49 |
| supster | *the single upstart job file | 23:49 |
