There has been an issue where a restart of koha-sip would sometimes not bring
the SIP server back alive. This is because we have not been waiting for
koha-sip --stop to actually stop the SIP server(s). It is then possible for a
restart to attempt the --start command while a previous instance of SIP server
is still running. As the --start command in this case is not allowed, we would
then end up not starting the SIP server(s) at all.
This patch replaces daemon --stop with start-stop-daemon --stop to ensure
koha-sip daemon actually stops.
start-stop-daemon provides us the --retry option, which we are able to utilize
in waiting for the stop process to finish.
To test:
1. Before applying this patch
2. Run this command
export SIPINSTANCE="your_koha_instance_name"
You can your_koha_instance_name using the koha-list command
3. Configure a SIP server (add some min_servers, e.g. 6, to SIPConfig.xml)
4. koha-sip --enable $SIPINSTANCE
5. koha-sip --verbose --start $SIPINSTANCE
6. Observe "Starting SIP server for ..."
7. koha-sip --verbose --stop $SIPINSTANCE; ps aux | grep $SIPINSTANCE-koha-sip
8. Observe "Stopping SIP server for instancename"
9. In the output, observe the number of SIP servers you defined in step 3, plus
one.
10. koha-sip --verbose --start $SIPINSTANCE
11. Apply this patch, or edit the koha-sip directly to get changes in place
in your environment, e.g. using command
nano $(which koha-sip)
12. koha-sip --verbose --stop $SIPINSTANCE; ps aux | grep $SIPINSTANCE-koha-sip
13. Observe "Stopping SIP server for instancename"
14. In the output, observe no more SIP servers alive
