Updated Patch for fixing missing LSB information in Openfire init-script

Posted on by

Here is an updated version of my patch for fixing missing LSB information in Openfire init-script. (Read more about it here)

The patch should apply cleanly to Openfire 3.6.4 init-script. If you have any problems, feel free to contact me.

Note: You need the ‘patch’ program installed (apt-get install patch).

UPDATE: I’ve corrected the patch command. Thanks ButterflyOfFire for pointing it out.

    Hi thanks for the patch ;)
    Can you just correct the command. It is :
    patch -p0 < openfire_364_fix_missing_lsb_information.patch

    rather then openfire_3.6.4 (the name of your patch has no points between 364)

    Thank you very much. It works for me ;)

    Dear Saz,

    from :
    “openfire_364_fix_missing_lsb_information.patch”

    to :

    “openfire_3.6.4_fix_missing_LSB_information.patch”

    Thanks

      Hello Jonathan,

      thanks for your information. As it seems, wordpress is cutting of the dots in the version number. (I don’t know why, and I don’t like it. Will have a look at it).

      I’ve updated the patch command and now everything should work.

    You don’t by any chance have the .deb still do you? I cannot find a copy anywhere despite having done a lot of searching, and the igniterealtime.org site is giving me ” 503: Service Temporarily Unavailable” errors.

    Thanks, Charles.

      Hello Charles,

      for me, the site is working again. Anyway. You can get the .deb package here

          I’ve tried to download my patch and it’s working without a problem.

          Do you get an error message?

    Hello again Saz,

    I think you should correct again the command line (case sensitive). It should be :

    patch -p0 < openfire_364_fix_missing_lsb_information.patch
    rather than
    patch -p0 < openfire_364_fix_missing_LSB_information.patch

    Merci :)

    Hi !

    Thanks! It looks like, I need it, because I cannot remove openfire [I made other things to install it]. But the patch fails:

    patching file /etc/init.d/openfire
    Hunk #1 FAILED at 3.
    1 out of 1 hunk FAILED — saving rejects to file /etc/init.d/openfire.rej

    I am not very experienced with my debian [etch], could you possibly help??

    Thanks a lot,
    mabra

    • http://steffenzieger.de saz

      It’s possible, that you are using a different version of Openfire.
      Please send me your /etc/init.d/openfire and /etc/init.d/openfire.rej and I’ll have a look at it.

      HAND,
      Saz
