Description Carl Anderson 2005-12-09 14:15:08 UTC
jboss version 4.0.0-r1 and splashutils 1.1.9.8

After installing splashutils and adding the emergence theme to my boot process,
Jboss appears to be up and running, but in fact it is not.  /etc/init.d/jboss
status reports it has started.  ps ax | grep jboss.Main  reports that there are
no jboss processes running.

After checking Spock's splashutils website, it appears that this is a known
issue for some startup processes.  The solution is to modify the
/etc/init.d/jboss file to prepend "setsid " to the command that starts jboss in
the start method.  I've verified that this solves the problem.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge =splashutils-1.1.9.8
2. reboot
3. ps ax | grep jboss.Main | grep -v grep | wc -l

Actual Results:  
wc returns 0 lines.

Expected Results:  
I typically see 71 or so process immediately after a reboot.

There is currently no ebuild for jboss-4.0.0-r1 in portage.
