GWIA won't start on OES after some changes to config
One of our engineers called me tonight with a broken GroupWise 7.0.3 GWIA on OES1. he said they tried to add a second GWIA to the same machine and couldn't get it going.
We looked at it for quite some time, tried loading it from the /etc/init.d/groupwise start OUR-DOM.GWIA command and got very little except it wouldn't load. Loading it by hand with /opt/novell/groupwise/agents/bin/gwia @/opt/novel/groupwise/agents/share/gwia.cfg would work.
My solution was to modify the /etc/opt/novell/groupwise/gwha.conf file. This is the file that tells the /etc/init.d/grpwise script what to load and from where.
Normally it would have a section for each agent, the gwia one looks like this
[perfect_dom.GWIA]
server = /opt/novell/groupwise/agents/bin/gwia
command = /etc/init.d/grpwise
startup = gwia.cfg
delay = 2
wait = 10
I figured that I had to type the full path to the conf file when I did it manually, maybe it would help to tell the gwah.conf to do the same. My working gwha.conf file looks like this
[perfect_dom.GWIA]
server = /opt/novell/groupwise/agents/bin/gwia
command = /etc/init.d/grpwise
startup = /opt/novell/groupwise/agents/share/gwia.cfg
delay = 2
wait = 10
I don't know why it's working this way. Sometime, especially late at night, at the end of a long day, you just have to go with the flow :-))))
