non-daemon process using Bundler

[Christopher J. Bottaro]

Hello,

I'm having a problem with god trying to watch a non-daemon process that is started by "bundle exec".

God starts the process just fine, as seen by ps:

6856 ?        Ss     0:00 sh -c bundle exec rake resque:scheduler >> /home/rails/project_a/shared/log/scheduler.log 2>&1

6860 ?        Sl     0:23 ruby /home/rails/project_a/shared/bundle/ruby/1.9.1/bin/rake resque:scheduler

The problem is that god is monitoring the first process (6856), so that a "god stop" or "god restart" nukes the first process, but the second one remains.

Any ideas?  Thanks for the help.

Hi Chris,

I'd guess the issue is that god is starting your sh shell and the shell is starting ruby, rather than god.  I am not sure how god deals with processes like these but I'd guess the issue not to be with bundle exec.

I'd suggest running resque scheduler directly without wrapping in sh -c if your environment allows.

here's my w.start command that is confirmed to be working correctly under bundle exec

w.start = "#{BIN_PATH}/bundle exec rake -f #{RAILS_ROOT}/Rakefile resque:scheduler"

Hope this helps.

Hey Pete,

Thanks for the reply.  Surprisingly enough, I resolved this issue by letting god handle the log file.  In other words, I changed my god config like so:

  w.start     = "bundle exec rake resque:scheduler >> /home/rails/project_a/shared/log/scheduler.log 2>&1"

to

  w.start     = "bundle exec rake resque:scheduler"

  w.log       = "#{SHARED_PATH}/log/scheduler.log"

Not sure why that fixed it.  Probably has something to do with Bash/Unix process intricacies that I don't fully understand.
