Hey everyone,

I'm having some problems with the init.d script on a fresh CentOS 5 install.
It seems like it is having a problem creating the PID file. I have not
made any modifications to the init.d script, just copied it exactly after
the compile/make from sapi/fpm/init.d.php-fpm. Running the php-fpm command
by itself runs fine. Any one have any thoughts or similar problems?

Davy

Have you tried the php-fpm from Remi's repo? I have no problem with the
init.d script that comes with it. Here's the instructions on how to
configure yum to include rpms from Remi's repo:

Thanks for the tip, I was able to get it working by taking the script from
Remi's rpm and modifying it. I guess maybe the init.d script that comes
with source doesn't work on centos. Can anyone confirm this?

The init.d script shipped with the source is not guaranteed to work
everywhere. It is the job of your distributions package maintainer to write
a script.

start: /path/to/php-fpm
stop: kill `cat /path/to/php-fpm.pid`

it stays the best and universal way to stop/start daemon. Keep in mind
that in some OS there is no init.d system.

The best universal way to do something usually isn't the best way to do
this on a particular system. E.g. many systems have special features for
their init systems like additional logging or the early creation of sockets
in the new systemd init replacement that's introduced in Fedora right now.

Especially on a production system you should usually work with the system
not against it.

Dennis

what I meant was that as every system has specifics, so it's the
mainteneror or users job to make/use its own startup script.

I was just going to say the same thing. I have several CentOS 5.5
servers running the packages from REMI with no issues what so ever.
