[CDO] Graceful server shutdown when running without a console [message #509344]

Hi,

We are just getting started working on integrating CDO. In this, I have managed to get a CDO server running using PostgreSQL 8.4 for object storage. I have bundled the required plugins and built the CDO server as an Eclipse product, and I am able to run it just like any other Eclipse platform product.

Now, what I want to do is to run the CDO server as a daemon under Linux, or as a service under Windows. This means I will not have access to the osgi console, and will not be able to give the 'close' command as the examples show.

I have played around with various kill signals in Linux, but none of them seems to trigger a 'close', i.e. a graceful shutdown.

Is there any out-of-the-box solution for achieving this, or if not, does anyone have any other suggestions for achieving what I need to do?

A nice weekend to you all!

/ Fredrik Salomonsson

Hi Fredrik,

I searched the Equinox forum and found this thread:
http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php?t=msg&goto=10077 7 . There I
found this link: http://tid-osgimanager.forge.os4os.org/ which I have
not tried myself.

I also found this promising article from the Band XI folks:
http://bandxi.com/exposure/eclipsecon2008/264/M1-SettingUpAR emotePlatform.pdf

A simpler solution might be to just add a port number argument to the
-console command line option. Compare
