Joshua McKenzie commented on CASSANDRA-14464:
---------------------------------------------
When you run with -f, you're getting a simple:
{quote}taskkill /f /pid $pidToKill{quote}
So seems like there's something odd happening on your system if it's restarting
cassandra after being force-killed by the OS. So first off, I'd recommend not
running with /f since that's basically forcing a hard stop of the DB w/out
letting it shutdown gracefully.
To give some context here on the surprising complexity of C* shutdown on
windows: this code was written in July of 2014, and [does the
following|[https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/cassandra-3.11/bin/stop-server.ps1#L75-L95]|https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/cassandra-3.11/bin/stop-server.ps1#L75-L95]:])
:
# A .bat file calls
# A powershell file which
# Contains a C# program it interprets on the fly
([PowerStopper.Stopper|https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/cassandra-3.11/bin/stop-server.ps1#L69-L71])
which
# Uses pinvoke to use [native
calls|https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/cassandra-3.11/bin/stop-server.ps1#L120-L140]
to attach to the console and send a ctrl+C to kill it and let the C*/JVM
signal handlers terminate the application
The TL;DR here: it's kind of a small miracle it worked in the first place
(Windows signal handling very very very much != *nix), and if your two OS
environments are respawning a process that terminated itself due to receiving a
SIGINT and shutting down, there's not much we can do from a runtime script
perspective to stop it.
That being said, I tested the functionality of this on server 2012 back when I
wrote it and it worked fine on a few different environments and used it for dev
purposes daily for a couple years after that on Win10 and Server 2012 for a
couple years after that without ever having an issue with it.
The new pid that gets spawned is another java process running C*? If you run
process explorer, what parent process owns that new pid? Is it owned by the
original cassandra.bat that you were running things from? Is it running as a
service under svchost?

> Key: CASSANDRA-14464
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-14464
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Shyam Phirke
> Priority: Critical
>
> Steps to reproduce:
> 1. Copy and extract cassandra binaries on windows 2016 machine
> 2. Start cassandra in non-legacy mode
> 3. Check pid of cassandra in task manager and compare it with in pid.txt
> 4. Now stop cassandra using command stop-server.bat -p ../pid.txt -f
> Expected:
> After executing <cassandra_installed_location>\bin:\> stop-server.bat -p
> ../pid.txt -f
> cassandra process as in pid.txt should get killed.
>
> Actual:
> After executing above stop command, the cassandra process as in pid.txt gets
> killed but a new process gets created with new pid. Also the pid.txt not
> updated with new pid.
> This new process should not get created.
>
> Please comment on this issue if more details required.
> I am using cassandra 3.11.2.
>
> This issue impacting me much since because of this new process getting
> created my application uninstallation getting impacted.
