The simplest way to start and stop and OpenACS site is to run the startup shell script provided, /var/lib/aolserver/$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME/etc/daemontools/run. This runs as a regular task, and logs to the logfile. To stop the site, kill the script.
A more stable way to run OpenACS is with a "keepalive" mechanism of some sort, so that whenever the server halts or is stopped for a reset, it restarts automatically. This is recommended for development and production servers.
The Reference Platform uses Daemontools to control AOLserver. A simpler method, using init, is here.
Daemontools must already be installed. If not, install it.

Each service controlled by daemontools must have a directory in /service. That directory must have a file called run. It works like this:

Verify that the controls work. You may want to tail -f /var/lib/aolserver/$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME/log/$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME-error.log in another window, so you can see what happens when you type these commands.
