Recently I published an init.d script for debian/ubuntu to start wuala in headless mode. Since some time now I have a mediacenter running on Archlinux so the debian init.d script needed some change to run properly. I'm currently putting together a package to install wuala on archlinux with via pacman. In the meantime I will publish the rc.d script in case someone wants to install wuala manually following the instructions found here.
!/bin/bash WUALADIR=/home/wuala/wuala WUALAUSR=wuala BACKPWD=`pwd` USECOLOR="YES" . /etc/rc.d/functions case "$1" in start) rc=0 stat_busy "Starting Wuala" cd $WUALADIR su $WUALAUSR -c "screen -d -m $WUALADIR/wualacmd" add_daemon wuala stat_done ;; stop) rc=0 stat_busy "Stopping Wuala" cd $WUALADIR su $WUALAUSR -c "$WUALADIR/wualacmd exit > /dev/null" rm_daemon wuala stat_done ;; restart) $0 stop sleep 1 $0 start ;; status) cd $WUALADIR su $WUALAUSR -c "$WUALADIR/wualacmd showStatus" ;; *) echo "usage: $0 {start|stop|restart|status}" esac cd $BACKPWD exit 0
Upadte: Use wualacmd instead of wuala. (Thanks to http://www.synergeek.fr/2010/06/wuala-sous-linux/ for the hint)
