supervisord always returns exit status 127 at WebFaction
celery, python, supervisord, webfaction
Solution
Exit code 127 means "command not found":
http://www.tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/exitcodes.html
Try passing the full path to the `celery` command:
command=/home/something/bin/celery worker -A my_app --concurrency=3 --loglevel=debug
Also, try setting the `redirect_stderr` and `stdout_logfile` options in your `[program:x]` section to capture the error message and make debugging easier.
Problem
I keep getting the following errors from supervisord at webFaction when tailing the log: ``` INFO exited: my_app (exit status 127; not expected) INFO gave up: my_app entered FATAL state, too many start retries too quickly ``` Here's my supervisord.conf: ``` [unix_http_server] file=/home/btaylordesign/tmp/supervisord.sock [rpcinterface:supervisor] supervisor.rpcinterface_factory=supervisor.rpcinterface:make_main_rpcinterface [supervisorctl] serverurl=unix:///home/btaylordesign/tmp/supervisord.sock [supervisord] logfile=/home/btaylordesign/tmp/supervisord.log logfile_maxbytes=50MB logfile_backups=5 loglevel=info nodaemon=false pidfile=/home/btaylordesign/tmp/supervisord.pid supervisord.pid [program:my_app] directory=/home/btaylordesign/webapps/my_app/my_app command=celery worker -A my_app --concurrency=3 --loglevel=debug ``` I'm starting supervisord from the same directory as supervisord.conf: ``` $ supervisord -c ./supervisord.conf ``` but I can't seem to find the right combination of settings. I need to be able to do three things: - Start my celery workers in the background and keep them running. - Stop the celery workers when I deploy code. - Restart the celery workers when the deploy is complete. But, I can't do any of that until I resolve the error. What am I doing wrong?
