That looks like the init script for starting the Netscape Admin server. Once started, you can access it with a browser to start up the actual Web server(s). There is an init script for each of those, and also a "start" and "stop" script in the home directory for each Web server (we operate a test server and a production server on the same platform).

I launched netscape and browsed to http://servername but I didn't see anything for starting the server up... can you be a little more detailed about your previous post

Hi

we start our netscape admin server with
cd /opt/netscape/suitespot/bin/admin
./ns-admin -d /opt/netscape/suitespot/admin-serv/config

In your config-dir there must be a file name "ns-admin.conf"

In this file you can find several parameters, one of them is "PORT xxxx"

To connect to your adminserver:
http://servername:xxxx

Hi

If you want to start your webserver over the admin server you have to start the admin server and go to the admin-server with : http://localhost:port

On the first screen you see your servername and then an "ON/OFF" button.

OR

cd /opt/netscape/suitespot/SERVERNAME
./start

Typically there is a start script for each server instance.

EX:

//https-instancename/start

is the base server directory for netscape.

https-instancename is the subdirectory for that each server instance has.

In each of those directories there is a script called "start" that is used to start that instance.

thanks for all the help everyone. I tried to do all you suggestions. After talking with HP they determined that my netscape "server4" directory is corrupt. so it's off to restores I go. Thanks for your input and help.
