[00:08] <joshu> I finally got it working with the following https://gist.github.com/anonymous/d8e61294931052f96f76
[08:42] <xnox> joshu: you can do env HOME=/home/test \n exec /usr/bin/brscan-skey, thus no need for script / end-script.
[08:43] <xnox> joshu: but it looks ok / good none-the-less.
[08:44] <joshu> hi xnox thanks for looking at it. I can make those changes. It took a long time to figure out that chdir wasn't working. I still don't understand why, but with the export or env in your case it works
[13:13] <scampbell> I have a system daemon that takes a long time to shutdown, I want rsyslog to stay up until that daemon is completely down but rsyslog.conf states stop on runlevel[06].   I'm not seeing how to accomplish this without altering rsyslog (and really others).  Suggestions?
[13:33] <jodh> scampbell: echo "stop on stopped your-job" |sudo tee /etc/init/rsyslog.override
[13:34] <scampbell> ah, thank you.
[13:37] <jodh> scampbell: note that if your daemon takes a really long time to stop, you may need to meddle with /etc/init.d/sendsigs as that is what currently handles "final cleanup" before shutdown.
[13:49] <scampbell> thx, this points me in the right direction to read up :)
[15:28] <SpamapS> hrm
[15:29]  * SpamapS gets annoyed by the default respawn limit
[17:10] <xnox> SpamapS: too much, too little, not often enough? =)
[17:10] <SpamapS> xnox: Actually I took a moment to reason about what was happening and it is good.
[17:10] <SpamapS> xnox: my program does a few http fetches and fails.. and then gets respawned.. infinitely
[17:10] <xnox> SpamapS: a cup of tea solves everything !
[17:10] <SpamapS> but.. that's probably a good default
[17:11] <SpamapS> even though the fail is not related to the fetches..
[17:11] <SpamapS> kind of makes sense to just keep trying something that fails 1 time per second forever in the thought that it may very well just be failing temporarily because of network
[17:11] <scampbell> It's turning out to be real fun to arrange for large application to be stopped on shutdown/reboot before the other services are stopped.
