Hi,
I am trying to make an rc script to start libreoffice daemon. The aim is
convert Open Document files to PDF, HTML and TXT.
The script is the following:
#!/bin/sh
#
# PROVIDE: libreoffice
# REQUIRE: LOGIN cleanvar usr
# KEYWORD: shutdown
. /etc/rc.subr
soffice_path="/usr/local/lib/libreoffice/program"
name="soffice"
#soffice_user="svn"
procname="${soffice_path}/oosplash.bin"
rcvar=`set_rcvar`
pidfile="/var/run/${name}.pid"
command="/usr/sbin/daemon"
command_args="-p $pidfile"
command_args="$command_args ${soffice_path}/${name}"
command_args="$command_args '--accept=socket,host=golem,port=8100,tcpNoDelay=1;urp'"
command_args="$command_args --nologo --headless --nofirststartwizard --invisible"
command_args="$command_args --nolockcheck --norestore"
stop_precmd="${name}_prestop"
soffice_prestop(){
# kill first child process
pkill -P `cat $pidfile`
}
load_rc_config $name
run_rc_command "$1"
This script works nicely, and starts libreoffice as a root daemon. But
I need to start it as another user (svn), thus I comment out the line
#soffice_user="svn"
After that, something weird happens with then internal expasion in rc
functions, and I get:
# service soffice restart
Starting soffice.
Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string
eval: urp --nologo --headless --nofirststartwizard --invisible --nolockcheck --norestore": not found
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/soffice: WARNING: failed to start soffice
I am unable to fix this... I am trying escaping quotes, using
backslashes, etc.
Any advice will be wellcome.
Best regards
