TinyCallCenter on CentOS 6

ckkhatri · 02-28-2012, 05:34 AM

Dear All Experts,

I am new to Linux, I am trying to deploy TinyCallCenter provided by Rubyiest on CentOS 6.

TCC needs to run under Runit Supervised service.
The process id of runit service should PID # 1

I am unable to do so as i have installed runit-1.8.0.rpm

Please help me.

Hello Chirs,

Below is the rpm output.

[root@localhost service]# rpm -qa | grep runit
runit-1.8.0-1.30.x86_64

According to the documentation of runit the process ID of runit should be PID 1, when I run the sv s servcies command, everytime is says runsv is not running.

I think you need to actually understand what runit is, and how you use it. Just installing it won't help you at all, you need to boot your system using it, as that's what it's for.

Hello Chirs,

you are right, I dont know much about Runit i have just started learning.

In the documentation of Runnit i cannot see installation steps for distros CentOS,RHEL or Fedora i can only see

How to replace sysvinit on GNU/Linux
How to replace init on *BSD
How to replace init on MacOSX
How to replace init on Solaris

Please guide to which distro i should follow to install it on CentOS.

Erm... CentOS is Linux... didn't you know that??

But that's for building it from source, which you aren't. I would be given to think that the set up scripts in runit will sort it all out for you, have you rebooted since installing it?

All this work does sound like it shold really be covered by installation docs for this call center software though, as whilst it may be simple to achieve with prebuilt RPM'S it's still a big step to rip out sysvinit and replace it.
