(RADIATOR) Restartwrapper problems (notification mail)

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Neil, Hello Tunde -

Neil is correct.

Because you are getting an error when restartWrapper is trying to 
execute the command specified, restartWrapper is doing what is supposed 
to do - ie. waiting 2 secdonds and then trying again.

You will need to fix the problem (ie. change the port numbers or 
whatever), and then restartWrapper will successfully start the program 
and then wait for it to exit (for whatever reason) then it will start 
the program again. This is the reason that you need the "-foreground" 
flag in the command line for "radiusd ....", so that it (radiusd) does 
not detach from the controlling program (restartWrapper), which would 
otherwise cause restartWrapper to spin trying to restart radiusd 
forever.

regards

Hugh
