Starting EAP 6 RPM install sometimes falsely reports "Process crashed on startup"
Issue
- We've installed EAP 6 from the RPM. Starting up sometimes we see "Process crashed on startup" immediately.
- This occurs because multiple pids are unexpectedly seen at the below lines in the service script:
echo `pidof -x "$JBOSSSH_only"` > $JBOSSPID
read ppid < $JBOSSPID
if [ ! -z $ppid ]; then
if [ `ps --pid $ppid 2> /dev/null | grep -c $ppid 2> /dev/null` -eq '1' ]; then
- The child process being started up is still seen at this line in a state similar to the parent process as it is being forked:
16498 ? S 0:00 $EAP_HOME/bin/CLOUD_0000.sh -P standalone.conf-c standalone-full-ha.xml
16593 ? S 0:00 \_ /$EAP_HOME/bin/CLOUD_0000.sh -P standalone.conf -c standalone-full-ha.xml
Environment
- JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) 6.x
