Steve,
the error is nor saying that openser was not able to create the pid file, but the "start" script says it didn't find the pif file after starting openser, which means openser failed to start.

Verify that the userid that you are starting OpenSER or have specified in the config file has write permission to /var/run/ so that it can create/delete the openser.pid file.

Hi Ben,
there is no generic init script (yet) - OS independent.
you can still use openserctl - openser does not probably start because of some cfg error - take a look into syslog for errors that prevent the start up.

Hello all,
I've just installed openSER on OpenBSD and I'm now trying to get openSER to start and am having trouble. I try openserctl start and here's what i get:
# openserctl start database engine 'MYSQL' loaded Control engine 'FIFO' loaded Starting OpenSER : \E[37;31mERROR: PID file
/var/run/openser.pid does not exist -- OpenSER start failed #
After a bunch of reading it seems as if openserctl is now obsolete (???) and that you should use the init script. I can't find reference for anyone running it like this on OpenBSD. I have found openser.init file in /<src directory>/packaging/gentoo and /<src directory>/packaging/rpm, but i am not sure how to use them on OpenBSD (I'm rather new to OpenBSD... I'm used to the rpm style of things.)
I've searched and searched but can't find any info... So. anybody out there using openSER on OpenBSD? Or anybody know howto (or whereto find the info to) set up the start script for openSER on OpenBSD?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks, Ben
