Experiments lead me to assume that the stanza respawn limit 5 100
ONLY limits the respawning rate (to 5 starts in 100s); it does NOT instruct init to babysit the job. What purpose that could serve is unclear to me, but apparently another "respawn" is necessary: respawn respawn limit 5 100 This reduces the impact of my bug to minor; maybe some clause in the documentation might be enough. (I'd prefer "respawn" to always mean re- spawn. I had considered "limit" merely an option.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/831606 Title: "respawn" does not start job again To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/upstart/+bug/831606/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
