Neo4j Shutdown hook

[KCD]

I am installing Neo4j on amazon cloud with chef. The server starts
fine but as soon as the chef process is complete the server shuts
down. Looks like the shut down hook is invoked.

4/19/12 11:46:14 AM org.neo4j.server.NeoServerWithEmbeddedWebServer
INFO: Server
started on [http://localhost:7474/]
4/19/12 11:47:00 AM org.neo4j.server.NeoServerBootstrapper INFO: Neo4j
Server sh
utdown initiated by kill signal
4/19/12 11:47:00 AM
org.neo4j.server.statistic.StatisticStartupListener INFO: st
opping filter


Is there a way to disable the shut down hook via config?

Thanks,
KCD

Hi,

Any more detail on how you invoke Neo4j?  It's shutting down because of a kill signal (presumably because a shell invoked by Chef is finishing).

Thanks,

Not sure how Chef is invoking the service, but it breaks expectations that the service should quit.  Oddly, I haven't seen this in puppet.  Is it possible to try executing the init script directly from Chef?

I have tried running the /etc/init.d/neo4j service directly too. The
result is same.
Is there a way to run4j as a daemon service?

Yes.  The Debian packages are a good example of this working.  Do you mind contacting me off-list, and we can discuss some gory detail?

Best
