#14952: Privoxy 3.0.8_1 fails to start following install ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: faircloth@gmail.com | Owner: macports-tickets@lists.macosforge.org Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Keywords: | ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ After installing Privoxy using macports (3.0.8_1 on OS X 10.5.2), the daemon fails to start with the appropriate launchctl command. A search of the logs indicates: Apr 07 16:22:52.494 Privoxy(000000a0) Info: Privoxy version 3.0.8[[BR]] Apr 07 16:22:52.503 Privoxy(000000a0) Info: Program name: /opt/local/sbin/privoxy[[BR]] Apr 07 16:22:52.503 Privoxy(000000a0) Fatal error: can't load actions file '/opt/local/etc/privoxy/standard': No such file or directory. Note that beginning with Privoxy 3.0.7, actions files have to be specified with their complete file names.[[BR]] It appears that the old (3.0.6) config file carried over to 3.0.8_1? Therefore appending `.action` to the actionsfile(s) corrects the problem (@ line 337-339 in /opt/local/etc/privoxy/config): actionsfile standard.action # Internal purpose, recommended[[BR]] actionsfile default.action # Main actions file[[BR]] actionsfile user.action # User customizations[[BR]] It should be mentioned that I initially attempted to "upgrade" from 3.0.6, ran into the problem, uninstalled all versions of privoxy, reinstalled 3.0.8_1, ran into the same problem w/ the daemon not running, edited the config file, and restarted privoxy -> problem solved. Perhaps my old config file from 3.0.6 was hanging around? -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/14952> MacPorts </projects/macports> Ports system for Mac OS

New config files are created upon the port's activation if and only if they don't already exist. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/14952#comment:1> MacPorts </projects/macports> Ports system for Mac OS
