Re: [Firebird-test] [FB-Tracker] Commented: (CORE-3077) /etc/init.d/firebird script stops firebird with fbmgr and password

[Gili's H. <gil...@ho...>]

Hi
Thanks for your response.
The default is a SIGTERM(15) signal and firebird exists fine.
The problem with current method is:
a) fbmgr -shut runs with sysdba masterkey hard coded. This causes an error after you change sysdba's password.
b) Our service that comes at startup(reboot) stops and starts firebird to make sure all old connections are removed.
This caused fbserver to crash and not come up until I've replaced security2.fdb with a default one.
Thanks

Alexander Peshkov commented on CORE-3077:
-----------------------------------------

If you do not need multiple instances - our method is OK. Moreover - you need not kill guardian explicitly. Firebird 2.1 is processing signal 15 (I suppose it's send by pkill by default ?) and exits nornally, after which guardian also exits. Please check this to make sure signal is processed correctly. If not - you are in danger of corrupting databases when server is killed by unprocessed signal.

> Scenario is as follows:
> 1) change password for sysdba using gsec
> 2) perform /etc/init.d/firebird stop
> It does not stop the firebird correctly since it uses hard coded(in script) masterkey password.
