[rabbitmq-discuss] rabbitmqctl stop hangs

Tue Dec 10 01:32:10 GMT 2013

Hi All,

We are using rabbitmq-server rpms on linux.  Recently we upgraded from 3.1.1-1 to 3.2.0-1, and we are seeing intermittent hangs when stopping rabbitmq.  Here is the ps output:

root     31052 31051  0 Dec06 ?        00:00:00 /bin/sh /sbin/service rabbitmq-server stop
root     31055 31052  0 Dec06 ?        00:00:00 /bin/sh /etc/init.d/rabbitmq-server stop
root     31100 31055  0 Dec06 ?        00:00:00 /bin/sh /usr/sbin/rabbitmqctl stop /var/run/rabbitmq/pid
root     31111 31100  0 Dec06 ?        00:00:00 su rabbitmq -s /bin/sh -c /usr/lib/rabbitmq/bin/rabbitmqctl  "stop" "/var/run/rabbitmq/pid"
rabbitmq 31112 31111  0 Dec06 ?        00:24:10 /usr/lib64/erlang/erts-5.10.3/bin/beam.smp -- -root /usr/lib64/erlang -progname erl -- -home /var/lib/rabbitmq -- -pa /usr/lib/rabbitmq/lib/rabbitmq_server-3.2.0/sbin/../ebin -noshell -noinput -hidden -sname rabbitmqctl31112 -boot start_clean -s rabbit_control_main -nodename rabbit at vm-ave29 -extra stop /var/run/rabbitmq/pid

The CPU time column on the erlang process does slowly go up.  I don't know if it plays a factor, but this broker has shovels defined to a remote broker, and the remote broker was down at the time of this stop.

Is this a known issue?  We've been seeing this a couple times a week (over > 100 brokers), and I need to get a fix for this.

Thanks,
Ed
