Brandon Williams commented on CASSANDRA-8594:
---------------------------------------------
I think Cyril is talking about the debian init script, however:
bq. we use start-stop-daemon without asking it to create the pidfile
[This
line|https://github.com/cscetbon/cassandra/blob/cassandra-2.0.10/debian/init#L96]
does ask it to create the pidfile, and it wouldn't be able to stop the service
without it. I can confirm that -p does write the pid to the file.
> pidfile is never filled by cassandra
