----------------------------------------
Summary: zkServer.sh does not work properly on Solaris
Key: ZOOKEEPER-2042
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-2042
Project: ZooKeeper
Issue Type: Bug
Components: scripts
Affects Versions: 3.4.6
Environment: Solaris 5.11
Reporter: John Lindwall
Priority: Minor
There are two issues in the zkServer.sh that make it not work properly out of
the box.
1. The bin/zkServer.sh script uses plain "echo" in all instances but one: when
writing the pid to the pid file. In that instance it uses /"/bin/echo".
The "/bin/echo" on Solaris does not understand the "-n" parameter and
interprets it as a literal string, so the "-n" gets written into the pid file
along with the pid. This causes the "stop" command to fail.
2. The /bin/grep command in Solaris does not understand special character
classes like "[[:space:]]". You must use the alternate posix version of grep
as found in /usr/xpg4/bin/grep for this to work. If the script cannot be made
completely generic then at least we should document the need to the posix grep
implementation on Solaris.
