[jira] [Commented] (ACCUMULO-429) Clean up startup scripts

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-429?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13419513#comment-13419513 ] 

Adam Fuchs commented on ACCUMULO-429:
-------------------------------------

In the postinstall for debian packaging, we create a symlink of accumulo in /usr/bin. That doesn't work (reliably if not at all) because of the `dirname $0` reference. We should not do that. Maybe there's a way we can add /usr/lib/accumulo/bin to the PATH instead?

We should go through our startup scripts and have some consistancy with out we resolve paths and make sure things work properly with relative paths, absolute paths, symlinks, and any other path craziness people can think of.
