«press any key to exit» bug #7

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
I've created initscript to run udpt (daemonized) in such way:
       start-stop-daemon --start --background --make-pidfile \                                                                                       
                          --pidfile ${PID_FILE} \                                                                                                     
                          -1 ${LOG_FILE} -2 ${ERROR_LOG_FILE} \                                                                                       
                          --exec ${DAEMON} -- ${CONF_FILE}
I run script in one terminal window (start-stop-daemon has detached and I see 
bash prompt) and watching for the output (tail -f ${LOG_FILE}) in other 
terminal window. But when I press any key in first terminal, udpt is gracefully 
terminated (I saw «Goodbye.» and «threads terminated» in second terminal). 
Very funny :)

There are plans to add a daemon/Windows Service into the tracker later.
The tracker doesn't currently run as a daemon/service.

In the meantime, this isn't an issue (it may be an issue later).

Daemon/service is very good, but at least in Linux no need to specially made 
daemon application – start-stop-daemon can easily background non-daemon ones. 
In case of udpt, I think that only stdin connection (waiting for any keys) 
prevents this task to be done properly, resulting in need of something like 
screen/tmux for remote use.
Is there any real need in this «anykey waiting»? Maybe I do not understand 
its purpose?

It may help now that the program only exits with signals instead of standard 
input.
