Bucardo/Windows

From Bucardo

Jump to: navigation, search

Bucardo will not work on Windows boxes, as it has some Unix-specific features. However, the only part of Bucardo that needs to run on a non-Windows box is the Perl daemon: the Bucardo database and all databases to be replicated can be running on Windows.

It would be nice to get Bucardo working at some point as a native Windows service. Some of the factors that are currently preventing it from running on Windows:

  • Use of fork() and setsid()
  • Heavy use of PIDs
  • Sys::Syslog module
