Hello,
i have an OpenVZ default contrib template and on it installed "vncserver" application.
Issue is that "vncserver" when launched it has an pid file:
root@kcgbqjnv:~/.vnc# ls -la
total 28
drwx------ 2 root root 4096 Mar 26 10:04 .
drwx------ 16 root root 4096 Mar 26 10:04 ..
-rw------- 1 root root 8 Mar 26 10:17 passwd
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1115 Apr 8 2013 server:1.log
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 266 Apr 8 2013 xstartup
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 463 Mar 26 10:04 [b]zzz:1.log[/b]
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5 Mar 26 10:04 [b]zzz:1.pid[/b]
zzz is hostname which is automatically used during vncserver startup.
So as you can see, i need to delete these *zzz* files and start vnc server AUTOMATICALLY AFTER OPENVZ TEMPLATE IS BUILT TO A NEW VM.
Please how can i achieve this task?
thank you
-------
my idea is to create cron script which will do taks and delete itself.. so when template is applied to vm, it will do the job and maybe delete itself?

If I understand you correctly, you need to permanently change an existing template so that old .pid files aren't there and the vncserver service is set to start at boot.
What I would do is simply:
- create a temporary VM with this template, start it
- vzctl enter VMID
- delete the old .pid files, set the vncserver service to start at boot (chkconfig ...)
- exit and stop the VM.
Archive the /vz/private/<VMID> as a new template (give it your name if you wish, etc.) and use it from now on as your starting template. You can now of course delete the temporary VM if you wish.
A similar procedure is described here:
