CoovaChillli-Radius not restarting on changed configuration #408

Open attybro opened 6 years ago

attybro commented 6 years ago

I am working with coova-chilli 1.4 and I am using radius in order to provide chilli confinguration. The problem I am facing is linked to coovachilli restart. When I restart chilli and the configuration from radius is not changed chilli restarts without problems. But when I change options from radius-side (also a single parameter), chilli is not properly restarted, but it is blocked at: Starting chilli: Hangup File conf has the new parameters, but chilli is stopped (if I want chilli in running status I have to restart it again). Looking at the code, in functions.in I found that the blocking command is: killall -HUP chilli 2>/dev/null >/dev/null Indeed it looks like that covachilli is not able to manage the hangup signal HUP and the process is only killed and not restarted.
