So my suspicion around the -sf was correct. Each time i run the haproxy command
I get the following printed on the console:
cat: /data/haproxy.pid: No such file or directory
which seems to be a result of "-sf $(cat $pidfile)" in the command line.
Has anyone successfully done this in practice? is there possibly other ways of
achieving this with having to restart the haproxy process?
thanks
