Venkatesh Seetharam commented on FALCON-276:
--------------------------------------------
This is a problem in java web server world. The server is different from the
web application its trying to load. It can serve many web apps and provides a
container for these. I understand this is not good operationally. Not sure if
there is a way out. The code actually throws RuntimeException if the services
would not start.
{code}
org.apache.falcon.listener.ContextStartupListener#contextInitialized
try {
startupServices.initialize();
ConfigurationStore.get();
} catch (FalconException e) {
throw new RuntimeException(e);
}
{code}
> falcon/prism services should fail to start if exceptions are encountered
> during bootup

> Project: Falcon
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 0.4
> Reporter: Arpit Gupta
>
> I noticed that when starting falcon and prism the services started up but i
> could not run the falcon admin -version command. Upon looking at the
> application logs i saw exception.
> It would be a much better if the service fails to start when exceptions are
> encountered and throws an error so the service start commands fail.
