[BlueOnyx:25799] Re: 5209R/5210R/5211R: ISO images updated

Ok, I have determined that the admserv not starting on reboot, is due a 
race conditions.

I don't know the cause, but I do have a work around by using delays in 
the [Service] definition sections of 3 services.

In httpd.service I added:

[Service]
ExecStartPre=/bin/sleep 3



In php-fpm.service I added:

[Service]
ExecStartPre=/bin/sleep 2



In admserv-php-fpm.service I added:

[Service]
ExecStartPre=/bin/sleep 3


Now everything starts clean.
There is still one error on shutdown, but it flashes up a bit too fast 
on the console for me to read it before the screen clears.


- Ernie.
