rc.d script issues, trying to launch second nginx

W

wonslung

ok...i'm very very new to freebsd and the rc.d scripts are killing me =)
i recently switched over to freebsd from ubuntu for a few great reasons....i love it but i'm having trouble..

i need to have a second instance of nginx running as a different web user to accomplish something for my situation.

i was able to do this easily in ubuntu but rc.d has me stumped
i changed what i thought was enough to make it work and then i ended up changing more....but no matter what i do it always uses the default configuration file even though i've told it to use a different one.

first i'll post the original script/config file location then i'll post my new one...
i'm sure it's a simple stupid mistake but if someone can point me right.....


original nginx rc.d script
Code: 
#!/bin/sh

# nginx_profiles (str):         Set to "NO" by default.
#                               Unsupported feature, reserved for future releases.

        else
                return 0
        fi
}

extra_commands="reload configtest upgrade"
run_rc_command "$1"

so i made a new config file at /usr/local/etc/nginx/ called nginx2.comnf
changed everything in the script i thought i needed to change
set the proper rc.conf enable="YES" and it won't start with the NEW config
it keeps using the one one
here is my wrongly modified script

any help would make me owe you a million
 
The reason that nginx is using the old config is because the binary is built with the config filename for the first one. The rc.d script is starting up nginx by just invoking the command ('/usr/local/sbin/nginx2' in this case). You'll need to figure out the correct start command to force nginx to use a different config file and pass that to the startup command in the rc.d script.

You probably need to do something like:
Code: 
command="/usr/local/sbin/nginx2"
command_args"-c /usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx2.conf"

Look for the comment block in /etc/rc.subr around line 390.
 
it's still not working.....this is frustrating...i guess i can try to download the source and compile a new binary
 
ok, cool, that worked....compiled a new one from the latest stable source and used --prefix=/usr/local/nginx2 --sbin=/usr/local/sbin2

then renamed /usr/local/sbin2/nginx to /usr/local/sbin/nginx2
