[jira] [Reopened] (TS-3364) Add command line config validation
support to traffic_server
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-3364?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Sudheer Vinukonda reopened TS-3364:
-----------------------------------
reopening to add additional option to specify an arbitrary remap config file to verify.
> Add command line config validation support to traffic_server
> ------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TS-3364
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-3364
> Project: Traffic Server
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Configuration
> Affects Versions: 5.3.0
> Reporter: Sudheer Vinukonda
> Assignee: Sudheer Vinukonda
> Fix For: 5.3.0
>
>
> Currently, traffic_server fails to initialize when it encounters fatal errors in loading the config files during start up. During dynamic reloading of config files (e.g. via traffic_line), traffic_server rejects new config and falls back to existing/old config (however, if there was a traffic_server crash/restart subsequently, that can again result into failing to initialize).
> This jira proposes to make the behavior of traffic_server when it encounters such fatal errors configurable via a new setting {{proxy.config.ignore_fatal_errors}} with the below options:
> {code}
> 0 : All errors are fatal, do not load/reload
> 1 : Ignore a bad config line, continue with the rest
> 2 : Ignore a bad config line, stop parsing the file further
> ..
> {code}
> Based on concerns expressed, it has been agreed to not change the traffic_server's behavior to loading with fatal config. Instead, this jira will be used to add a command line option to traffic_server to load and validate the config.
