cpqacuxe starting

[Brian Bullen]

I am trying to run cpqacuxe on a Linux system.
The installation went a bit funky but it is now installed.
When I try and run it it says that it is already running and refuses to start.
It IS NOT already running. Does it check for a lockfile or something similar? If so which file?
Why does it think it is already running, and how can I fix this?

Many thanks.

use:

ps -ef | grep cpqacuxe (or whatever the daemon is) and make sure the process is still not runing.

Lock files are generally in the /var filesystem. You can look for it there and will have trouble if /var is too close to 100% full.

I already checked the process table. What kind of Unix admin would post without first trying that?
As for /var I can see nothing obvious.
Does someone who knows their way around cpqacuxe know what file it checks for, or what other checks it is performing?
