[gentoo-user] How does OpenRC know if a service is crashed?

[Alarig Le Lay]

Hi,

Some times ago, I wrote a basic init script for a service I’m running
but that is not in the tree.
It’s just a python script behind a reverse-proxy.

bulbizarre ~ # cat /etc/init.d/paste-py
#!/sbin/openrc-run
# Copyright 1999-2015 Gentoo Foundation
# Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2
# $Header: $

#depend() {
#
#}

start() {
        start-stop-daemon --start --user pastepy --exec paste-py.sh --name paste-py
        eend $?
}

stop() {
        kill $(cat /opt/paste-py/paste.pid)
}
bulbizarre ~ # cat $(which paste-py.sh)
#!/bin/sh

port="$(grep port /opt/paste-py/paste-py.conf | cut -d '=' -f 2)"
addr="$(grep addr /opt/paste-py/paste-py.conf | cut -d '=' -f 2)"

cd /opt/paste-py
source bin/activate
./daemonize.py --port=${port} --addr=${addr}
bulbizarre ~ # cat /opt/paste-py/paste.pid
9480
bulbizarre ~ # ps aux | grep 9480
root       493  0.0  0.0  11440   924 pts/3    S+   11:14   0:00 grep --colour=auto 9480
pastepy   9480  0.0  0.4 113548 16848 ?        S    08:05   0:00 python ./daemonize.py --port=8087 --addr=127.0.0.1

So, the process is running (and responding), but OpenRC shows it as
crashed

bulbizarre ~ # rc-status | grep crash
 paste-py                                                          [  crashed  ]

What do I have to change?

Thanks,
