Mongo 2.6.x sysv init script for EL6 isn't working correctly on 6u6. This is the output that standard start call returns:
# /etc/init.d/mongod restart
Stopping mongod: [ OK ]
Starting mongod: /usr/bin/dirname: extra operand `2>&1.pid'
Try `/usr/bin/dirname --help' for more information.
[ OK ]
Problem is that RedHat changed /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions, in a way that function __pids_var_run() contains new entry:
local pid_dir=$(/usr/bin/dirname $pid_file)
This is wrongly interpreted in daemon() function that Mongo uses. Problem is that $base is considered complete line:
"$NUMACTL $mongod $OPTIONS >/dev/null 2>&1"
This causes side effect:
+ base='null 2>&1' + __pids_var_run 'null 2>&1' '' + local 'base=null 2>&1' + local 'pid_file=/var/run/null 2>&1.pid' ++ /usr/bin/dirname /var/run/null '2>&1.pid' /usr/bin/dirname: extra operand `2>&1.pid' Try `/usr/bin/dirname --help' for more information. + local pid_dir=
and thus spitting out errors.
Solution is to use '--check' parameter for daemon() call. Here is proposing patch:
