Your server comes with init scripts for all of the core Rails Machine services. This includes Apache, MySQL, and Mongrel cluster. You can find these scripts and more in /etc/init.d/. They are all used similarly. To start or stop a service, use the <code>service</code> command with the name of the script. Examples: <pre><code> service httpd stop service mysqld start service mongrel_cluster restart service <service_name> [start|stop|restart|status] </code></pre> *Note:* If you are not running as root on the server, you will need to use sudo and the full path to <code>service</code>: <pre><code>sudo /sbin/service mysqld restart</code></pre> *Startup scripts* Service can also be used to start services when the system boots. To add or remove startup services, or to view the current configuration use these commands: <pre><code>chkconfig --list <service> chkconfig <service> on #start the service on boot chkconfig <service> off #do not start automatically </code></pre> *Hint:* When you add a new init script, be sure to make it executable: <pre><code>chmod +x /etc/init.d/<service></code></pre>
