NAME
kloned - klone daemon
SYNOPSIS
kloned [-d] [-f file] [-F] [-h] [-i] [-u]
DESCRIPTION
kloned merges a web server (or CGI to be plugged into other CGI-compliant web servers), its compressed configuration, together with the
static and dynamic web contents into a single executable file.
The process of creating the kloned executable, by embedding the web content into the server process, is documented in the klone(1) manual
page.
OPTIONS
-d Enable verbose logging for debugging purposes.
-f config_file
Load further configuration parameters from the external file config_file besides those found in the embedded configuration file
sup://etc/kloned.conf. Parameters in conf_file override the values of those with the same name in the embedded configuration file.
-F If specified, this parameter causes the main kloned process to not detach from the terminal. HTTP/HTTPS requests are served
iteratively: no child is forked to handle the client connection.
-h Display a summary of command-line options and exit.
-i Install kloned service and exit (only available on Windows).
-u Uninstall kloned service and exit (only available on Windows).
-V Print klone version and exit.
FILES
kloned depends on sup://etc/kloned.conf for the configuration of its instances (clones). Additional configuration can be supplied via an
external file (the -f command line flag): see kloned.conf(5) for details on available configuration parameters and their respective values.
DIAGNOSTICS
KLone is a product targeted for embedded systems, especially those with limited or no disk resources; as such it tries to reduce logging
activity to a minumum (at its best, zero logging).
Diagnostics issued by kloned are passed to the syslogd(8), subsystem with facility LOG_LOCAL0 and priority LOG_DEBUG and can be routed to a
configurable file (see syslog.conf(5) for details).
The number and nature of diagnostics available depends on the debug level defined at compile-time. If you are having problems, compile the
KLone application with NDEBUG unset, configure the syslog daemon appropriately, run your application and peruse the log files. Most
messages are reasonably self-explanatory. At this stage your best bet is still to grep the source code and inspect the conditions that gave
rise to the diagnostics you are seeing.
kloned is a service/daemon, as such it will bail out with an EXIT_SUCCESS exit code only if explicitly requested to terminate (i.e.
SIGTERM or SIGINT), otherwise it will exit with EXIT_FAILURE.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
The following environment variables affect the execution of kloned:
GATEWAY_INTERFACE
If set, kloned assumes it has been run as a CGI script by an external web server.
SIGNALS
To shut down a user's kloned process it is recommended that SIGKILL not be used, except as a last resort. The safe way to terminate a
kloned is to send it a SIGTERM or SIGINT signal and wait for it to die on its own.
