2008-09-15 Thread Christian Hudon
There's one small remaining problem with the torque-server init script: it's not idempotent. I found this out when running a "dpkg --configure torque-server" (to finish configuring the package) while the server was running. I wasn't sure what was best, so I filed a separate bug report about this:

Public bug reported: The torque-server init script is not idempotent. For example, calling /etc/init.d/torque-server start when the Torque server is already running causes the init script to exit with exit code 1 (instead of 0). This can cause problems when doing upgrades, reconfiguring the packag
