--pidfile fails silently

borax00

Hi,

I'm not sure if this is a bug or not, but:

Suppose I run:
'icegridnode --noclose --daemon --pidfile /filename'
as a non-root user (in Linux). There's a problem: I can't create '/filename' because I don't have permissions. icegridnode fails to create this file, but fails silently. I'd expect icegridnode to quit, or at least issue a message to stdout. Is this expected behaviour?


Thanks,

Alex

Oops, my bad. I had configured icegridnide to redirect stderr to a file, where it was dutifully reporting the error.
