How can I get the Database to auto-startup?

I just switched over to an OSX server and upgraded to 5.5 and would like to know if I could have FM pro server start automatically if lets say it crashes or should restarts.

Any Idea? This was pretty easy to figure out in OS9 server...

My experience with FMServer on OSX is that I'd rather NOT have it start automatically, specially after a crash.

I've seen 'it' starting up, checking a database for corruption and 'eating' the file whilst doing that...

I'd rather make a backup of what's left of the files after a crash and then opening them in client or recovering them with a client when necessary.

Sorry, the direct answer to your question is 'no'

Best regards,

Ernst.

Seems like a good work around... as long as you can count on the backup not getting corrupted.

It shouldn't be too complicated -- with the exception of scripting the shell commands. I think that should be straight forward, but I've no experience. Once I get some freetime, I delve into it. Let me know if you have any luck.
