Description Corey Welton 2011-07-25 16:26:10 UTC

Description of problem:
I'm not sure what the problem is, but I currently run into issues starting the katello service via RPM install. That said, it appears to start, but a status shows me that it's really not running.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:

[root@dhcp231-182 ~]# service katello start
Starting katello:                                          [  OK  ]
[root@dhcp231-182 ~]# service katello status
katello is not running.
  
Actual results:
it says it starts [OK] but a status indicates that's really not running

Expected results:
do some sort of sanity test upon startup to assure the service is actually running and stable before giving the green light.

Yeah we currently run the katello in nohup temporary. The plan is to switch to 

[root@nec-em15 katello-utils]# service katello start
Starting katello: [  OK  ]
[root@nec-em15 katello-utils]# service katello status
katello is not running.
[root@nec-em15 katello-utils]# service katello status
katello is not running.

...wait few more seconds...

[root@nec-em15 katello-utils]# service katello status
katello is running.

Temporary solution was to add sleep 5s to the init script. We are changing the way of starting katello in few weeks.

@Corey - it this workaround does not work for you, ping me and we could accelerate our production setup discussion. Or I could provide better fix for that.

Comment 3 Corey Welton 2011-09-22 15:13:05 UTC

Works for me. QA Verified.

Comment 6 Mike McCune 2013-08-16 17:55:02 UTC

getting rid of 6.0.0 version since that doesn't exist
