Stuart,
Would a possible solution be to use a configuration-specific runtime
option for MBE:
$ mythbackend --configure
to start MBE with the minimum necessary services started to permit
configuration?
Once configuration is complete, the script/calling application can
then trigger a normal MBE restart to fire up the backend with all
services running.
If the above represents a possible solution, what services would be
required to be running in addition to a connection to the database?
Cheers,
Nick
