-----------------------------------
Summary: Broker listener takes a long time to shut down on cluster
stop/restart
Key: BIT-1522
URL: https://bro-tracker.atlassian.net/browse/BIT-1522
Project: Bro Issue Tracker
Issue Type: Problem
Components: Broker
Affects Versions: 2.4
Environment: Ubuntu 14.04, Bro 2.4.1 with Broker
Reporter: Stephen Hosom
It looks like when shutting down Broker, the listener sticks around for an
exceptionally long time (as much as a minute or more). Because of this,
Broker's listener actually fails to re-bind to the port on the next cluster
start silently. All Broker communication then fails to work silently. It can
take a while to notice this failure, since nothing really complains.
The listener should probably shut down faster than 1 minute... but it might
also make sense to add options to have the listener retry to start, or generate
a failure message when it doesn't start. Maybe listener starts in bro_init
should actually cause Bro to stop, so that the user sees the failure
immediately?
