---------------------------------------
Summary: "/etc/init.d/cassandra stop" prints OK even when it
doesn't work
Key: CASSANDRA-8738
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-8738
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Donald Smith
Sometimes I do {{/etc/init.d/cassandra stop}} and it prints out OK, but the
server is still running. (This happens, for example, if it's busy doing GCs.)
The current init script prints out OK after sleeping but without checking if
the process really stopped. I suggest changing it to:
{noformat}

--- cassandra-original 2015-02-04 09:15:40.293767501 -0800
***************
*** 69,77 ****
sleep 5
! THE_STATUS=`$0 status`
! if [[ $THE_STATUS == *"stopped"* ]]
! then
! echo "OK"
! else
! echo "ERROR: could not stop the process: $THE_STATUS"
! fi
;;
--- 69,71 ----
sleep 5
! echo "OK"
;;
{noformat}
Then it prints out OK only if the stop succeeded. Otherwise it prints out a
message like
{quote}
"ERROR: could not stop the process: cassandra (pid 10764) is running...
{quote}
