12 The ovsqlite-server daemon is the only program that opens the overview
13 SQLite database. It accepts connections from the other parts of INN
14 that want to operate on overview data (innd, nnrpd, expireover,
15 makehistory).
16
17 This daemon must therefore be started before any other process can
18 access the overview database. ovsqlite-server is normally invoked
19 automatically by rc.news when starting the news system. It is also
20 stopped automatically by rc.news when stopping the news system.
21
23 -d ovsqlite-server normally puts itself into the background, points
24 its standard output and error to log files, and disassociates
25 itself from the terminal. Using -d prevents all of this, resulting
26 in log messages being written to the standard error output; this is
27 generally useful only for debugging.

30 pathetc/ovsqlite.conf
31 The configuration file. See ovsqlite(5).
32
33 pathoverview/ovsqlite.db
34 The SQLite database file.
35
36 pathrun/ovsqlite.pid
37 Stores the PID of the server process while it's running.
38
39 pathrun/ovsqlite.sock
40 When Unix-domain sockets are available, the server binds its
41 listening socket to this path.
42
43 pathrun/ovsqlite.port
44 When Unix-domain sockets aren't available, the server binds its
45 listening socket to a dynamic TCP port on the IPv4 loopback
46 interface and stores the port number in this file.
