Starting the Reporter Daemon
Stopping the Reporter Daemon

Before you can view reports, the Evergreen administrator must start the reporter daemon from the command line of the Evergreen server.

The reporter daemon periodically checks for requests for new reports or scheduled reports and gets them running.

Starting the Reporter Daemon

To start the reporter daemon, run the following command as the opensrf user:

clark-kent.pl --daemon

You can also specify other options:

sleep=interval: number of seconds to sleep between checks for new reports to run; defaults to 10
lockfile=filename: where to place the lockfile for the process; defaults to /tmp/reporter-LOCK
concurrency=integer: number of reporter daemon processes to run; defaults to 1
bootstrap=filename: OpenSRF bootstrap configuration file; defaults to /openils/conf/opensrf_core.xml

Note

The open-ils.reporter process must be running and enabled on the gateway before the reporter daemon can be started.

Remember that if the server is restarted, the reporter daemon will need to be restarted before you can view reports unless you have configured your server to start the daemon automatically at start up time.
