It sounds as if you might be running your "REST endpoint" program from an interactive shell (i.e., a terminal) and sending SIGTERM by pressing something like Ctrl-C. Interactive job control, which includes how signals generated by a "terminal" are handled, is a complex topic. So we need to know how you are sending SIGTERM to your process. Is it by something like the `kill` command or syscall to a specific PID or by pressing keys on your terminal to terminate the process?
