Quick way of reproducing:
1. Start a new project
2. Replace urls.py with:
from django.conf.urls.defaults import *
from django.http import HttpResponse
import subprocess
def start(request):
cmdname = request['cmd']
p = subprocess.Popen([cmdname, 'start'], stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
stdout, stderr = p.communicate()
return HttpResponse(stdout or stderr)
def stop(request):
cmdname = request['cmd']
p = subprocess.Popen([cmdname, 'stop'], stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
stdout, stderr = p.communicate()
return HttpResponse(stdout or stderr)
urlpatterns = patterns('',
(r'start/$', start),
(r'stop/$', stop),
)
3. Start the django server (python manage.py runserver 8080)
4. Access an url like: http://localhost:8080/start/?cmd=/etc/init.d/exim4,
or any cmd= that starts a service (anything that daemonizes). You'll
notice that the loading bar (in my firefox at least) never stops
loading, even though the django web server is done with the request,
and the page has been rendered.
5. If you now stop the server and try to start it again, it wont be
able to bind to its port:
Validating models...
0 errors found.
Django version 0.96-pre, using settings 'starter.settings'
Development server is running at http://127.0.0.1:8080/
Quit the server with CONTROL-C.
Error: (48, 'Address already in use')
However, at this time, Im not sure whats causing this to happen. Any
ideas would be appreciated.
Shutting the started service down manually, or accessing the /stop/?
cmd= url before stopping the django server fixes the problem.
