Rudder

If we change Rudder webapp context URL (by changing jetty and apache files), the distribute-policy Rule could not find check if the status of the webapp is OK, so it thinks its not running and force jetty restart on the next run.

I changed my context URL to "myLittleRudder" so access to my webapp is http://server.rudder.local/myLittleRudder and the url the API status is http://server.rudder.local/myLittleRudder/api/status

but the promise keeps on checking rudder/api/status because the context URL is hardcoded in the distribute policy

Here is the extract of alive-check and the bundle root-alive-check which cause the problem:

bundle agent root_alive_check {

        vars:

                "apps_to_check" slist => { "rudder", "endpoint" };

        methods:

                "any" usebundle => generic_alive_check("$(apps_to_check)");

}

bundle agent generic_alive_check(app) {

        vars:

                        "site_to_check" string => "http://localhost:8080/$(app)/api/status";
                        "sitename" string => canonify("$(site_to_check)");

                        "cleanup_failed_classes" slist => { "site_down_once_$(sitename)", "site_alivecheck_restart_jetty_$(sitename)" };

                        "failed_result_class" string => "site_down_once_$(sitename)",
                                ifvarclass => "!site_down_once_$(sitename).!first_iteration_passed";

                        "site_failure_persist_time" string => "10",
                                ifvarclass => "!site_down_once_$(sitename).!first_iteration_passed";

                        "failed_result_class" string => "site_alivecheck_restart_jetty_$(sitename)",
                                ifvarclass => "site_down_once_$(sitename).!first_iteration_passed";

                        "site_failure_persist_time" string => "0",
                                ifvarclass => "site_down_once_$(sitename).!first_iteration_passed";

        classes:

                        "first_iteration_passed" expression => "any";

        methods:

                        "any" usebundle => generic_process_check_process(".*java.*/opt/rudder/jetty7/start.jar", "jetty", "true"),
                                ifvarclass => "site_alivecheck_restart_jetty_$(sitename)",
                                classes => set_persist_classes("site_alivecheck_jetty_restarted_$(sitename)", "site_down_once_$(sitename)" ,"0");

 [...]

The context URL should not be hardcoded in that promise

I target 2.4.3 as i saw it happen in 2.5 and 2.4.3, it may be the case to in 2.3 too.
