Chris Anderson closed COUCHDB-709. ---------------------------------- Resolution: Fixed > Restart actually restarts the server > ------------------------------------ > > Key: COUCHDB-709 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-709 > Project: CouchDB > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Database Core > Reporter: Chris Anderson > > This patch will cause CouchDB to actually restart the server when a POST is > made to /_restart > The old way was unreliable as supervisors would shut things down > asynchronously. This new way is much more brute force, which makes it more > deterministic. > This only really effects the test suite. I'm only pushing the patch through > Jira to see if people see room for improvements. > One improvement would be to add a timestamp for server boot time to the / > response, but I seem to have avoided the need for that with my double GET > magic. > Do note: restart now drops any temporary config, hence the change to the > reader_acls test. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
