Bootstrap server relies on JVM lifecycle to shutdown the server --------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBBOOT-20 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBBOOT-20 Project: JBoss Bootstrap Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 1.0.0-Beta-2 Reporter: jaikiran pai Assignee: Andrew Lee Rubinger Bootstrap server internally uses a runtime ShutdownHook which relies on a system property (defaulted to true) "jboss.shutdown.forceHalt". The shutdown hook then halts the VM with a default error code = 0 (=SUCCESS). Currently this affects the testcases which use bootstrap to start the server. Even if these tests fail, because of the shutdown hook, the JVM process exit code is always 0 (=SUCCESS). unless, the following 2 properties are set to "false" in the testcase: ... props.put(ServerConfig.EXIT_ON_SHUTDOWN, "false"); System.setProperty("jboss.shutdown.forceHalt", "false"); ... server.init(props); Build tools like Maven rely on the JVM process return code to decide whether the tests have succeeded to carry on with the rest of the build process steps. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
