The usual way to run beanstalkd is to type its name
|
|
in a Unix shell prompt, like this:
|
|
|
|
$ beanstalkd
|
|
|
|
This will start up the process and give you control over it.
|
|
You can control its output (by default output is printed to
|
|
the screen; you can arrange to have output go into file
|
|
b.log by typing ">b.log" at the end of the command line),
|
|
pause and restart the process (by pressing Control-Z and
|
|
typing "fg"), and kill it (by pressing Control-C).
|
|
This is most convenient while writing programs that use
|
|
beanstalkd (or when working on beanstalkd itself), since
|
|
you might want to start and stop it many times and regularly
|
|
inspect its output.
|
|
|
|
If you want beanstalkd to start when your operating system
|
|
boots, the mechanism varies.
|
|
|
|
Traditionally, you must add a command line to the shell script
|
|
in /etc/rc (which is read by init when the system boots),
|
|
using the "&" notation to run beanstalkd in the background.
|
|
This would suffice for most situations, but it isn't always
|
|
possible.
|
|
|
|
These days, many popular operating systems have a replacement
|
|
init program with its own configuration language. Example
|
|
configuration files for several of these are included in
|
|
subdirectories here, but the most common is probably "System V
|
|
init", which reads /etc/inittab for lines describing commands
|
|
to run at various times. If this file exists, you can add
|
|
a line something like
|
|
|
|
bean:345:respawn:su nobody -c 'exec /usr/bin/beanstalkd'
|
|
|
|
and type "telinit q" to tell init to reread its configuration.
|
|
Type "man 5 inittab" for details of this notation.
