Description
Basically all init scripts are brokent on stop under CentOS 6.3
The stop() function calls start_daemon, succeeds, deletes the PID file, while the service is still running.
This is especially a problem with the "restart" command, which precisely fails to restart the service.
Strangely enough, the HTTPFS init script for 4.2.1 contains a fix for the problem, mentioning:
- FIXME: workaround for BIGTOP-537
This should definitely be extended to all init scripts in the CDH distribution.
