I think now I understand what happens (I'm not on RedHat, so I would
have probably noticed it earlier): The stop command kills Webware, but
it does not wait until the process is really down. Instead, it
immediately removes the /var/run/$APP_NAME.pid file. But Webware is
still shutting down (and the $WORK_DIR/appserverpid.txt file is still
there). So, when it is immediately started again by the restart command,
it refuses to start because it is still in the shutdown process.
Suggested fix: After the kill command in the stop() function (before the
success call) put something like the following:
for tries in 1 2 3 4 5; do
if [ ! -d "/proc/$PID" ]; then
break
fi
sleep 1
done
Let me know whether this works or if you have a better solution. I will
improve this then in the SVN for the next version.
