Bug #2792
closedDuring a migration from 2.3.8 to 2.4.0~beta3, rudder-agent postinst can display some errors when copying CFEngine binaries
Description
[...] rudder-agent 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off cp: cannot create regular file `/var/rudder/cfengine-community/bin/cf-execd': Text file busy cp: cannot create regular file `/var/rudder/cfengine-community/bin/cf-serverd': Text file busy rudder-agent has been installed, but not started [...]
It could be because of Rudder Webapp which uses cf-promises before generating any promise.
We should use a better test before to copy any CFEngine binary.

To ensure that no CFEngine process is up, we kill all /var/rudder/cfengine-community/bin binaries.

OK, with NPE correction it looks much more correct :) Approved !

It seems that the correction doesn't work. The CFEngine binaries aren't copied.
I'm on it

I can't understand. I've tried to debug this with additionnal outputs and it works:
rudder-agent 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off list CFEngine process use pkill in order to free CFEngine binaries Exit status: 1 Try to copy binaries Exit status: 0 rudder-agent has been installed, but not started Making a key pair for cfengine, please wait, this could take a minute...

The error during installation and migration was coming from an exit error of pgrep, pkill and grep -v when these commands didn't find any results.

This is not a blocking issue so I change it to the next run. We still need technical review for the work done.

Looks OK. But about the errors that cp outputs, a simple "cp a /opt/rudder/sbin/cf* /var/rudder/cfengine-community/bin/ >/dev/null 2>&1" might make it shut up.

The problem has not been fixed so we still need work on it. Technical review can't be considered as done.

I'll take a look at this. Maybe do a retry if it fails once?

I think the problem here is not how you stop the CFEngine processes, just that you can't stop them this way. As a reminder, there is a cron job that restarts CFEngine daemons every 5 minutes if they're stopped... so you can kill them anyway you like (pkill, killall, kill -KILL), they still may be started up again by another script.
I think a good workaround here would be to disable any programs from using the binaries, via a mechanism such as described in #2884.
