GOTWEBCTL(8) System Manager’s Manual GOTWEBCTL(8)

NAME

gotwebctl — control the Game of Trees Web Daemon

SYNOPSIS

gotwebctl [−hV] [−f path] command [arg ...]

DESCRIPTION

gotwebctl controls the gotwebd(8) daemon.

Access to the gotwebd(8) control socket requires root privileges.

The options for gotwebctl are as follows:

−h

Display usage information and exit immediately.

−f path

Set the path to the control socket which gotwebd(8) is listening on. If not specified, the default path /var/run/gotwebd.sock will be used.

−V, −-version

Display program version and exit immediately.

The commands for gotwebctl are as follows:

info

Display information about a running gotwebd(8) instance.

stop

Ask a running gotwebd(8) instance to gracefully stop itself. This is equivalent to sending a TERM signal to gotwebd(8) without requiring knowledge of the process ID to send the signal to.

The control socket will be closed by gotwebd(8), allowing a new instance of gotwebd(8) to take over. New FastCGI socket connections will no longer be accepted, but FastCGI requests currently in progress are still processed to completion.
