[jira] [Created] (COUCHDB-2220) "/usr/bin/couchdb -b" doesn't close
stdout / stderr
Shish created COUCHDB-2220:
------------------------------
Summary: "/usr/bin/couchdb -b" doesn't close stdout / stderr
Key: COUCHDB-2220
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-2220
Project: CouchDB
Issue Type: Bug
Security Level: public (Regular issues)
Reporter: Shish
"/usr/bin/couchdb -b" launches a copy of itself in the background, but leaves stdout and stderr for the subprocess attached to the controlling terminal in the foreground
This makes salt hang when launching couchdb, because it tries to read the output of "/etc/init.d/couchdb restart" - despite the fact that that init script itself has returned, the children (ie, the daemon) are still holding the console file descriptors open
I *suspect* that this is also the cause of this issue --> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1669
If you have salt-minion 2014.1.0 installed, try stopping couchdb and then starting it up with:
salt-call cmd.run 'su couchdb -c "/usr/bin/couchdb -b -o /tmp/couchdb.stdout -e /tmp/couchdb.stderr"'
Originally reported as a bug in salt, but it seems that couchdb is the part with the non-standard behaviour https://github.com/saltstack/salt/issues/11228
