Description

Hey all! I was looking to update my trusty webservices today, but I'm in a bit of a jam.

Working on tool "montage-dev" (on trusty):

$ webservice --backend=gridengine stop
Your webservice is not running

But then (on stretch):

$ webservice --backend=kubernetes start
Looks like you already have another webservice running, with a gridengine backend

And no combination of start/stop from various environments or backends seems to help.

Any advice on how to update this tool (montage-dev), as well as the similarly-designed montage-beta, montage, weeklypedia, and ifttt-dev?

Try following the steps in § 'webservice stop' says service is not running, but 'webservice start' says service is running.

@mahmoud if the instructions on working around this problem that were linked in T216375#4960607 do not resolve the issue, please do re-assign to me with any error messages you can find.

tools.commons-video-clicks experienced this today. Here are the contents of the existing service.manifest:

backend: gridengine
version: 2

Trying to stop/start it:

tools.commons-video-clicks@tools-sgebastion-07:~$ webservice --backend=gridengine stop
Your webservice is not running

tools.commons-video-clicks@tools-bastion-03:~$ webservice --backend=gridengine stop
Your webservice is not running


tools.commons-video-clicks@tools-sgebastion-07:~$ webservice --backend=kubernetes start
Looks like you already have another webservice running, with a gridengine backend
You should stop that webservice by issuing:
    webservice --backend=gridengine stop
And then start it again with backend kubernetes by issuing:
    webservice --backend=kubernetes start

And the new service.manifest after applying the workaround:

backend: kubernetes
distribution: debian
version: 3
web: php5.6

There were not pods / jobs running for this tool when the error happened.

Looks like a combination of techniques on the linked pages has got me unblocked. FWIW, I also had the "version: 2" manifest.

Feel free to close this fixed, or use it for other migrating tools. Thanks all!
