Re: [AOLSERVER] [AS 4.0] Shutting down the server

[Nathan Folkman]

You should be able to simply KILL the AOLserver PID. There are a number
of ways you can find the PID:
1. Configure the AOLserver to write out the PID to a file:

       ns_section "ns/parameters"
               ns_param pidfile /tmp/${servername}.pid
       By default a PID file is generated as log/nspid.<servername>.

2. Grab the PID from a running process:

       ps -ef | grep nsd
       shmooved 19894     1  0 Mar16 ?        00:00:00
/usr/local/aolserver/bin/nsd -it
3. Grab the PID from the server log:

       tail -5 /usr/local/aolserver/log/server.log
       [16/Mar/2003:21:40:28][19894.32773][-driver-] Notice: driver:
accepting connections
       [16/Mar/2003:21:40:28][19894.16387][-socks-] Notice: socks: starting
       ...
       [DATE][PID][TID]...

Then simply use KILL from the command line:

kill 19894

or

kill `cat /usr/local/aolserver/log/nspid.server1`

Or alternately, you can use the ns_shutdown command from the control
port. When the server receives the signal, it will attempt a graceful
shutdown, so it may take a few seconds.
Hope this helps!

Hi all,

I can't find how to stop the nsd process for the version 4.0 (4.0
beta3).
In the 3.x series, I was using the -K flag on the command line to stop
the
server.
Is there a new way to shutdown aolserver v4.0 ?

Thanks.
