You're not. Especially since it handles multiple postgresql instances with an optional parameter. Tom, can you try to make sure the script in /usr/libexec/initscripts/legacy-actions allows the same? Ideally, it would be possible for the admin to do something minimal like the following: # ln -s /usr/libexec/initscripts/legacy-actions/myinstance \ /usr/libexec/initscripts/legacy-actions/postgresql And the script would automatically know (based on the path) what service it's supposed to handle (i.e get the right PGPORT and PGDATA) Looking at postgresql-setup this shouldn't be too hard, instead of getting: SERVICE_NAME=$2 it could be something like: SERVICE_NAME=$(basename $(dirname $0)) > IMHO "service" is dead. Well, I guess we'll still be able to run the /usr/libexec/initscripts/legacy-actions/foo/bar scripts manually? :) -- Mathieu -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
