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
