Description Arvid Requate univentionstaff 2016-05-24 19:59:56 CEST
Same for AD-Connector: I just type "univention-ad-connector" as root and hit return and then I have another AD-Connector running. Even worse:

root@master:~# univention-ad-connector --help

And you started yet another one.


+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #34410 +++

Ticket#: 2014031921010642

We have seen three customer systems running multiple (two) instances of the s4-connector. There sould be some logic to prevent this.

Patch: prevent multiple ad-connector instances

The attached is a port of what was implemented in bug #34410 for the s4-connector.

This prevents multiple ad-connector instances from running.

The patch contains multiple references to the S4-Connector. The error messages should say "AD-Connector" and the lockfile path should not be /var/lock/univention-s4-connector.

Sorry, right. It seemed so simple, that I overlooked that.

Thank you!

Comment 5 Arvid Requate univentionstaff 2017-08-30 15:40:16 CEST
After the package update "univention-ad-connector --help" still starts a second process. I think a "/etc/init.d/univention-ad-connector start" is required in postinst for update situations.

Strange, I added a crestart to the python-univention-connector-ad postinst. There is already one in univention-ad-connector.
