[Orca-users] orca stop reading data

Mon May 29 22:06:07 PDT 2006

What is your find_times set to? Orca stops reading data files that are not
being updated and does not check for new files until it receives HUP signal,
is restarted, or one of "find_times" occurs.

Subject: [Orca-users] orca stop reading data

Hi,

Iam having two boxes one called WWW and one called Laptop. The WWW box runs
orca and procallator. Laptop runs only procallator and then it scps the
files to WWW,  with an interval of 600 secs.  Orca on WWW is configured to
run each 600 secs.
Since Laptop is a Laptop it sometimes get shutdown but when its up n running
again it starts procallator and then the little scp script starts running.
And the files on WWW gets updated. But the PNG's never get updated. I must
stop orca with kill and then start it again.
Here are some log output from the orcalog.

--------

The log entries above the cut is from the time when laptop had started copy
new data after the system halt. I hope you understand my problem. This kind
of set up most be a very common so it would be a no problem solving this
issue.

Frej Eriksson
