Unable to nohup fuseesb 4 in server mode

[userx_m8r-vmfs8d]

I am just getting started with FuseESB 4.0.0.4, and I am unable to background the servicemix process using nohup.  When I try I get:

% nohup ./servicemix server &  

16352

% appending output to nohup.out

% tail -f nohup.out

  + suspended (tty output)  nohup ./servicemix server

It forces itself to be suspended when running in the background.  When I push this back into the background with % bg, it immediately re-suspends.

% bg

  + continued  nohup ./servicemix server

%

  + suspended (tty output)  nohup ./servicemix server

I am running fuseesb 4.0.0.4 on OS X using java:

java version "1.5.0_16"

Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_16-b06-284)

Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_16-133, mixed mode, sharing)

I see the same behavior with servicemix kernel 1.0.x and 1.1.0, so I suspect that I'm just missing something obvious.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I see a similar behavior here on Linux where instead of suspended, the process gets stopped.

[1]+ Stopped nohup bin/servicemix server

Not sure whats happening here and will try to dig deeper.

It seems like this has been raised just a few days ago under SMX4-262.

This issue doesn't seem to occur when using kernel version 1.1.0, must be a kernel 1.0.3.x series issue.

An alternative that may work if using bash (for example) is:

• ctrl-z to suspend the process

• bg to put it in the background

• disown to disown it

[userx_m8r-vmfs8d]

Thanks for the suggestion about disowning things.  At least in zsh this will work with: ./servicemix server &|

I'll confirm in bash and make sure that I can start this from a non-interactive script.
