options

--port

The port to run the server on. Overrides the port in the config file, if it is set there. The default port is 8888.

--user USER

The user to become after binding to the port. It is advised that you use this when binding to low ports, instead of running as root. This option only works if the server is using a Net::Server subclass.

--group GROUP

The group to become after binding to the port. Like --user, this option only works if the server is using a Net::Server subclass.

--host HOSTNAME

The host to bind to. This option only works if the server is using a Net::Server subclass.

--stop

Stops the server, if it is running. This is accomplished by reading the PID from var/jifty-server.pid

--restart

restart the server, if it is running. This is accomplished by killing the child pid, and let parent pid create a new one

--sigready SIGNAL

Sets the signal number that should be sent to the server's parent process when the server is ready to accept connections.

--quiet

Reduces the amount of debug output sent by the server

--dbiprof

Turns on DBI profiling; see DBI::ProfileDumper.

--help

Print a brief help message and exits.

--man

Prints the manual page and exits.
