| Lion-Simba | Hi all. Is there any command in Upstart to reset job hanging in "stop/killed" status? | 09:22 |
|---|---|---|
| Lion-Simba | I'm trying to write my own job file for my service, and it don't work well yet. So, I need to debug it, but now I've stuck with this "stop/killed" state. | 09:22 |
| ion | Upstart’s current fork-tracking code is preliminary and gets confused easily. You probably used the ‘expect’ stanza claimin a certain style of daemonizing and the behavior of your main process was different. Can you reboot? | 09:31 |
| ion | http://heh.fi/tmp/workaround-upstart-snafu if not. | 09:32 |
| ion | ‘# workaround-upstart-snafu n’, where n is the pid ‘status jobname’ says, given that no such process actually exists. | 09:33 |
| Lion-Simba | Yes, I can. But I'm not very happy to do it every time during development. | 09:33 |
| ion | If you’re not absolute sure of the forking behavior of the main process, it’s better to make it not fork and not use the ‘expect’ stanza. | 09:35 |
| ion | ly | 09:35 |
| Lion-Simba | WOW! I've just started workaround-upstart-snafu without arguments... and it start output a lot of numbers (pids?) and not interruptable by ctrl+c | 09:36 |
| Lion-Simba | Not quite good behaviour.. | 09:37 |
| ion | pkill -f workaround | 09:38 |
| ion | I never said it’s a good program. :-) As the name says, it’s a workaround. | 09:38 |
| Lion-Simba | Ok. It's died. ) | 09:38 |
| Lion-Simba | But... ‘# workaround-upstart-snafu n' not helped. | 09:39 |
| Lion-Simba | Same numbers. | 09:39 |
| ion | Updated the file. Now it shouldn’t behave incorrectly when given no parameters. | 09:41 |
| ion | Exactly what does ‘status jobname’ print? | 09:41 |
| Lion-Simba | root@dahari:~# status stargazer | 09:42 |
| Lion-Simba | stargazer stop/killed, process 12148 | 09:42 |
| ion | What does ‘ps -p 12148’ print? | 09:43 |
| Lion-Simba | Oh. It's over. I used workaround-upstart-snafu 12148 and wait a bit longer, letting it proceed with numbers. :) Now status is stop/waiting. Thank you. :) | 09:45 |
| cr3 | when I run an upstart job on hary, initctl start doesn't return to the shell and just leave me hanging. if I ctrl-c, the process I exec'ed in my upstart job is running fine though | 20:03 |
