I'm lazy, so in this case - RedHat 5 - I just used rc.local: # cat /etc/rc.d/rc.local #!/bin/sh #! # This script will be executed *after* all the other init scripts. # You can put your own initialization stuff in here if you don't # want to do the full Sys V style init stuff.
touch /var/lock/subsys/local
/usr/local/staf/startSTAFProc.sh
A lot of my tests involve reboots or (clean and unclean/power-cycles). I
am not sure if this error occurs soon after a reboot, but I believe it
actually does.
Thanks,
Paul

Paul,
On this system, are you starting STAFProc during reboot? That error
message can occur when STAFProc is started during reboot, and the message
doesn't really indicate that there is a problem with STAF. We have
sometimes found that the method used to start STAFProc during reboot can
have some side effects when running processes via STAF. Can you show us
the exact system file updates you have made to start STAFProc during
reboot? Can you retry your tests when you start STAFProc manually after
the reboot, and assuming they work correctly, try rebooting the system so
that STAFProc starts automatically, and then run the tests again to see if
the problem occurs? This would help us narrow down the problem.
Thanks,
David

It has shown up again. This is a Linux box. STAF was working fine and a
STAX job was running (STAX machine is separate) and interacting with two
Linux machines. One of them began having this error randomly, as far as I
can tell; it successfully was running processes 14 seconds earlier.
It looks like, from the nohup.out file, this is the "cause" of the failure,
especially since it appears to only effect the process service:

It looks like the AIX box had some funny things going on. I restarted STAF

Try adding the STDIN option specifying an empty file, e.g. /tmp/empty.txt,
you created on the machine where the process is running, e.g. on sjpwr5c2c.
Does that make a difference?
STAF sjpwr5c2c PROCESS START SHELL COMMAND "date" RETURNSTDOUT
STDERRTOSTDOUT STDIN /tmp/empty.txt WAIT

The first return code of 1 doesn't always show up. Here's another machine
that it's happening, this time STAF is running on AIX.
[r...@sjx86098 ~]# staf sjpwr5c2c process start shell stderrtostdout

First, add option STDERRTOSTDOUT so that you can see if there's any
additional error information when it fails.
Also, try adding option SHELL. For example: STAF local PROCESS START SHELL
COMMAND "date" RETURNSTDOUT STDERRTOSTDOUT WAIT

[staf-users] STAF
running but does not
return command output
This has happened both right after starting STAF as well as after it
already has been working.
It appears to mainly affect starting processes. STAF pinging it works.
Here's an example of the failure:
sjx64ycle:~ # staf local process start command "date" returnstdout wait
Response
--------
{
Return Code: 1
Key : <None>
Files : [
{
Return Code: 0
Data :
}
]
}
It should be:
[r...@sjx86098 ~]# staf local process start command "date" returnstdout
wait
Response
--------
{
Return Code: 0
Key : <None>
Files : [
{
Return Code: 0
Data : Thu Jan 28 10:19:12 PST 2010
}
]
}
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Paul E.
