Bug 252268 – www-servers/lighttpd-1.4.20: /etc/init.d/spawn-fcgi fails to stop

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Xiaolin Wu 2008-12-23 13:52:18 UTC]

I'm using lighttpd's spawn-fcgi for processing nginx's cgi requests. However, spawn-fcgi fails to stop every time. I checked the init-script and found that after spawn-fcgi started, the correspond pid-file was empty. I tried to modify the script making it stops correctly. Here is the report and my modification attached. Has anybody else met the same problem ?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.sudo /etc/init.d/spawn-fcgi start
2.sudo /etc/init.d/spawn-fcgi stop

Actual Results:  
* Stopping spawn-fcgi...
kill: usage: kill [-s sigspec | -n signum | -sigspec] pid | jobspec ... or kill -l [sigspec]                                                              [ ok ]
* ERROR: spawn-fcgi failed to stop


Expected Results:  
* Stopping spawn-fcgi...                                                  [ ok ]

i believe the new init script in www-servers/spawn-fcgi does not exhibit this problem. closing as lighttpd will not be fixed (it will depend on spawn-fcgi for future versions)

tahnks for the report
