MAMP noob question

Hi BitNami team,

I have installed MAMP stack, Mantis module etc. I am able to start service via terminal. I would like to start shell script during either Mac start-up or log-in. I couldn’t find much information.

Any help is appreciated.

Script is as follows:
#! /bin/sh
/Applications/mampstack-1.2-0/ctlscript.sh start
/Applications/knowledgetree-3.6.1-1/ctlscript.sh start

Best regards,
Yogeesh

Dear beltran,

Thanks a ton. This is exactly what I was looking for.

I tried to install service as indicated by creating plist files. I am running on OSX 10.6.2.

Following is my stack setup:
1. MAMP Stack
a. Mantis
b. Drupal
c. phpBB
d. DokuWiki
2. KnowledgeTree Stack

I am getting following errors:

1. MAMP Stack : No error
a. Mantis:
APPLICATION ERROR #400
Database connection failed. Error received from database was #2002: Can’t connect to local MySQL server through socket ‘/Applications/mampstack-1.2-0/mysql/tmp/mysql.sock’ (2).
b. Drupal:
Site off-line
The site is currently not available due to technical problems. Please try again later. Thank you for your understanding.
c. phpBB:
SQL ERROR [ mysql4 ]
Can’t connect to local MySQL server through socket ‘/Applications/mampstack-1.2-0/mysql/tmp/mysql.sock’ (2) ²⁰⁰²
d. DokuWiki
The datadir (‘pages’) does not exist, isn’t accessible or writable. You should check your config and permission settings. Or maybe you want to run the installer?
2. KnowledgeTree Stack:
[db_error: message=“DB Error: connect failed” code=-24 mode=return level=notice prefix="" info=" [nativecode=Can’t connect to local MySQL server through socket ‘/Applications/knowledgetree-3.6.1-1/mysql/tmp/mysql.sock’ (2)] ** Array"]

Am I missing something?? Please advice…

Everything works fine if I started from terminal.

plist details:
File name: com.bitnami-knowledgetree.service.plist, Label: com.bitnami-mamp-stack.services, Program Arguments: /Applications/knowledgetree-3.6.1-1/ctlscript.sh
File name: com.bitnami-mamp-stack.service.plist, Label: com.bitnami-knowledgetree.services, Program Arguments: /Applications/mampstack-1.2-0/ctlscript.sh

Hi,

The problem is that OS X services should be daemon process and ctlscript.sh is not a daemon script. When the script finishes, all process are killed. Try to create a different plist for MySQL like I wrote in this post http://bitnami.org/forums/forums/redmine/topics…

I hope it helps.
