Packager: Influxdb and telegraf share same init.sh path

[dever860]

Since influxdb and telegraf share the same ROOT DIR's, the init.sh file will get overwritten when both are installed via RPM.

ls -lah /etc/init.d/{telegraf,influxdb}
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 Jun 22 15:53 /etc/init.d/influxdb -> /opt/influxdb/init.sh
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 Jun 22 16:06 /etc/init.d/telegraf -> /opt/influxdb/init.sh

Suggest changing the following s/influxdb/telegraf/ so that telegraf is treated independent from influxdb

INSTALL_ROOT_DIR=/opt/influxdb
TELEGRAF_LOG_DIR=/var/log/influxdb
CONFIG_ROOT_DIR=/etc/opt/influxdb

can someone provide info on how to patch existing influxdb+telegraf installations. I just got my /opt/influxdb/init.sh overwritten.

Ultimately I just did the following, and linked the influxdb init script directly to the absolute URL instead of the symlink in /opt/influxdb.

ln -fs /opt/influxdb/versions/0.9.0/scripts/init.sh /etc/init.d/influxdb

That helps. I suppose you have to do this, too:

ln -fs /opt/influxdb/versions/0.1.1/scripts/init.sh /etc/init.d/telegraf

with this final result:

ls -lah /etc/init.d/{telegraf,influxdb}
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 44 Jun 25 17:18 /etc/init.d/influxdb -> /opt/influxdb/versions/0.9.0/scripts/init.sh
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 44 Jun 25 17:21 /etc/init.d/telegraf -> /opt/influxdb/versions/0.1.1/scripts/init.sh

This should be fixed by #23.

[dever860]

@toddboom It should be, but #23 was closed and not merged.
