debian package and fusioninventory-agent.pid

[Furlot]

Hello,

little bug in debian package of fusioninventory-agent 2.3.15 when start agent as daemon, fusioninventory-agent.pid is created in /var/lib/fusioninventory-agent/ but service script (in /etc/init.d) try to read pid in /var/run/ so stop and restart doesn't work.

same bug in 2.3.16 package.
The parameter --pidfile must be set in fusioninventory parameters et not in start-stop-daemon parameters.
start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --exec $DAEMON -- $DAEMON_OPTS --pidfile /var/run/$NAME.pid
instead of
start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile /var/run/$NAME.pid --exec $DAEMON -- $DAEMON_OPTS

Hi here !

can you try to use the latest debian package I produced today ?

Only Debian 8, Debian 9 and latest Ubuntu distros are supported. They were built using 2.3.x+debian-packaging branch in Teclib's fusioninventory-agent repo.

This is a manual install before I finally setup a more official repo in september. And feedback would help to eventually enhanced the package since then.

So can you try the new Method 1 at Debian and Ubuntu installation documentation ?

Thank you in advance

PS: I'm closing this issue as newer distro are based on systemd and pidfile isn't useful in that context.
