Has any one produced an Upstart script for pgagent on Ubuntu? I tried with the following:
<code>
description "Pgagent process control script"
author "Me"
start on started-postgres
stop on stopped-postgres
expect daemon
respawn
script su - postgres pgagent "dbname=postgres user=postgres"
end script
</code>
I also added an 'initctl emit started-postgres' to the pogstres-8.4 init.d and script and the corresponding
stopped-postgres.
Whether I specify 'expect daemon', 'expect fork', or nothing, the command 'sudo initctl start pgagent' hangs at the
commandline and doesn't start the daemon. The stop command hangs also.
The 'pgagent "dbname=postgres user=postgres"' works normally if issued from the terminal prompt. I know the command is
supposedto be issued from a normal user account, but shouldn't the su- command accomplish that?
