QtSQL problem

[mvbhavsar]

Hi,

I have build a console application on Linux platform which connects to MySQL DB and fetches some data and displays it. I have successfully compiled and ran on Linux. Now I have created a shell script and calling this application in that script since this script will be deamon script which has start, stop, restart and status features. I have kept this script in /etc/init.d folder. Now when I run service myscript start command, this console application runs but gives following error

QOCIDriver: unable to create environment

The same script runs without service if called directly. Can somebody help me on this please.


Thanks

Manish

When a script or program is run manually from an interactive shell, it usually run in a different environment then when running in a non-interactive shell, let alone in a non-user session.

You can start investigating the differences by dumping the environment variables in either case, e.g. doing something like this in your start script

env > /tmp/myprogram.env

env > /tmp/myprogram.env

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

Maybe your program or code used by it needs one of the variables set in the interactive shelll and not present in the daemon context.

Cheers,
