Peter Halliday commented on CASSANDRA-6399: ------------------------------------------- Also, on debian, there's no /var/run/cassandra directory created. So that means the PID file doesn't get created {noformat} ubuntu@domU-12-31-39-02-85-9C:~$ ps aux|grep cassandra ubuntu@domU-12-31-39-02-85-9C:~$ sudo service cassandra start xss = -ea -javaagent:/usr/share/cassandra/lib/jamm-0.2.5.jar -XX:+UseThreadPriorities -XX:ThreadPriorityPolicy=42 -Xms1862M -Xmx1862M -Xmn200M -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError -Xss256k ubuntu@domU-12-31-39-02-85-9C:~$ sudo service cassandra status xss = -ea -javaagent:/usr/share/cassandra/lib/jamm-0.2.5.jar -XX:+UseThreadPriorities -XX:ThreadPriorityPolicy=42 -Xms1862M -Xmx1862M -Xmn200M -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError -Xss256k * Cassandra is not running ubuntu@domU-12-31-39-02-85-9C:~$ {noformat} > debian init script removes PID despite the return status > -------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-6399 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6399 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Peter Halliday > > If there's an error in running service cassandra stop it can return a > non-successful code, but the do_stop() removes the PID file anyway. This > shows then via service cassandra status, that Cassandra is stopped, even > though it's still running in the process list. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1#6144)
