An Error about supervisor - python

OS:macOS Sierra10.12.3
I installed supervisor by 'brew install supervisor' and tried to use it to manage my python program:
import get_weibo
import time
while(True):
get_weibo.get_all()
time.sleep(60*60*6)
get_weibo works in console. It's not the problem
and the configuration of supervisor is here

guangmoliangzideMacBook:~ HirosueRyouko$ supervisord -c /etc/supervisord.conf
Then i got this in Supervisor Status:
Supervisor Status
The tail-f:
supervisor: couldn't setuid to 4294967294: Can't drop privilege as nonroot user
supervisor: child process was not spawned
How can I work this out?

You could try to use sudo on your command... Read the error... Can't drop privileges as non-root user
Or read here about running without root
Says to modify how the user= variable is set. Like comment it out entirely

Python INFO logs going to stderr_logfile of supervisord

I have a python flask app that I have configured to run via Supevisord. The supervisor.conf file looks something like this -
[inet_http_server]
port=127.0.0.1:9001
[supervisord]
logfile=/path/to/log/supervisord.log
logfile_maxbytes=0 ; max main logfile bytes b4 rotation; default 50MB
logfile_backups=0 ; # of main logfile backups; 0 means none, default 10
loglevel=debug ; log level; default info; others: debug,warn,trace
pidfile=/path/to/supervisord.pid
nodaemon=false ; start in foreground if true; default false
directory=/path/to/project
[rpcinterface:supervisor]
supervisor.rpcinterface_factory = supervisor.rpcinterface:make_main_rpcinterface
; The supervisorctl section configures how supervisorctl will connect to
; supervisord. configure it match the settings in either the unix_http_server
; or inet_http_server section.
[supervisorctl]
serverurl=http://127.0.0.1:9001
history_file=/path/to/.sc_history ; use readline history if available
[program:my_server]
command=<command to run the program>
directory=/path/to/project
stdout_logfile=/path/to/log/%(program_name)s_stdout.log ; stdout log path, NONE for none; default AUTO
stdout_logfile_maxbytes=0 ;
stderr_logfile=/path/to/log/%(program_name)s_stderr.log ; stderr log path, NONE for none; default AUTO
stderr_logfile_backups=0 ; # of stderr logfile backups (0 means none, default 10)
The issue is, when I run the app via supervisord, it logs all outputs - info, debug, error, etc to the %(program_name)s_stderr.log log file and not the %(program_name)s_stdout.log file.
I log my info messages using the python's default logging library as -
logger.info("Some info msg")
What could be the reason for this behaviour?
While this question is tagged with flask and supervisord, the core issue is really how python's "logging" system works. By default, logger.info() messages are sent to stderr, not stdout, so flask and supervisor are doing what they're told (really flask hardly enters into it).
The python/logger portion has a good answer here: Logging, StreamHandler and standard streams
In short, you have to create a separate StreamHandler for stderr and stdout, and tell them what messages (INFO, DEBUG, ERROR, etc.) go to which ones.
There's working code in that accepted answer, so I won't repeat it here.

django-supervisor connection refused

I am using supervisor to run celery with a django 1.8.8. setup. also using django-supervisor==0.3.4
supervisor==3.2.0
but when i restart all proecsses, i get
unix:///tmp/supervisor.sock refused connection
not able to restart any processes,
python manage.py supervisor --config-file=setting/staging_supervisor.conf --settings=setting.staging_settings restart all
supervisor config file
[supervisord]
logfile_maxbytes=10MB ; maximum size of logfile before rotation
logfile_backups=3 ; number of backed up logfiles
loglevel=warn ; info, debug, warn, trace
nodaemon=false ; run supervisord as a daemon
minfds=1024 ; number of startup file descriptors
minprocs=200 ; number of process descriptors

redirect_stderr=false
[program:celerybeat_staging]

[group:tasks]
environment=PATH="{{ PROJECT_DIR}}/../../bin"

[program:autoreload]
exclude=true
[program:runserver]
exclude=true
Got the solution. The supervisor process was not reloaded as supervisord was in my virtual enve as i ma using django-supervisor package.
once i reloaded the supervisor process, the refused connection error went away.
make sure there isn't already another /tmp/supervisor.sock owned by some user other than you (like root or something).
if not a permissions problem, add this to your supervisord configuration:
[unix_http_server]
file = /tmp/supervisor.sock ;
chmod=0700 ;
[rpcinterface:supervisor]
supervisor.rpcinterface_factory =
supervisor.rpcinterface:make_main_rpcinterface

Python startup script using STDOUT for outputs, using init.d method

My environment is Debian Jesse on a embedded arm display.
I am using a bash script to automatically launch my app using the init.d method. It launches a second python script as a daemon that handles my application on startup and reboot.
Because it is run this way to the best of my knowledge this is now a daemon background process, and it disconnects STDOUT and STDIN from my python script.
The system and application is for a single purpose, so spamming the console with outputs from a background process is not only not a problem, but it is desired. With the outputs I can easily ssh or serial console into the display and see all the live debug outputs or exceptions.
I have looked into possible ways to force the process to the foreground, or redirect the outputs to STDOUT but have not found any definite answer when the script is run at startup.
My logging to a file is working perfect and otherwise the app works well in the state it is in. Currently when I need to debug I stop the application and run it manually to get all the outputs.
I have considered using sockets to redirect the outputs from the app, and then running a separate script that is listening will print to console... but that seems less than ideal and that a better solution might exist.
Is there methods to achieve this or should I just accept this.
EDIT 1 (additional details)
Because I am using multiple logs for multiple processes I have created a logger class. The stream handler uses the default which should be sys.stderr.
import logging
import logging.handlers
class LoggerSetup(object):
def __init__(self, logName, logFileNameAndPath, logSizeBytes, logFileCount):
log = logging.getLogger(logName)
log.setLevel(logging.INFO)
formatter = logging.Formatter('%(asctime)s - %(levelname)s - ' + logName + ' - %(message)s',datefmt="%m-%d %H:%M:%S")
# Add the log message handler to the logger
if(logFileCount > 0):
fileHandler = logging.handlers.RotatingFileHandler(logFileNameAndPath, maxBytes=logSizeBytes, backupCount=logFileCount)
log.addHandler(fileHandler)
fileHandler.setFormatter(formatter)
consoleHandler = logging.StreamHandler()
log.addHandler(consoleHandler)
consoleHandler.setFormatter(formatter)
log.info(logName + ' initialized')
For more reference here is the startup script launch on boot. It then runs my python run.py which handles the rest of the startup process.

Im think i have missed something as when i type daemonLCD start it says command not found.
Any input would be great.
Thanks
Assuming you may want to manage more than one daemon in the future, let me recommend Supervisord. It's much simpler than writing and managing your own init.d scripts.
For example, starting your script would be as easy as including this in the conf:
[program:myscript]
command=/usr/bin/python /path/to/myscript.py
I use an init.d script available here. Rename it to supervisord and copy it to your /etc/init.d/ then run:
sudo update-rc.d supervisord defaults
I believe that init script has supervisord run as root as default. You can have it drop to run as another user if you like. I'm not if children run as root or not, although I'd assume not. Go ahead and check, but if they don't you can stick a sudo before the python command in your supervisord.conf where you call the script.
It that doesn't run, (or if you want supervisord to run as a non-root but still want your script run as root) you can allow for anyone (or a group of users) to run the python script as root (although you should make quite certain that this script cannot be edited by anyone other than root).
edit your sudoers file with "sudo visudo" and add the following to the end:
USERS ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /path/to/myscript.py
Then make sure you have a shebang at the beginning of your python script and change the command to omit the python call, i.e:
[program:myscript]
command=sudo /path/to/myscript.py
Here's a good blog post which deals with this question: Getting a Python script to run in the background (as a service) on boot
Use daemontools from djb. It is a lot easier than the other answers provided. For starters you can install daemon tools with apt-get so you do not need to worry about grabbing an unknown script from a gist and you get updates through debian like normal. daemontools also takes care of restarting the service if it dies and provides for logging. There is a description of daemontools and debian here:
http://blog.rtwilson.com/how-to-set-up-a-simple-service-to-run-in-the-background-on-a-linux-machine-using-daemontools/
djb's page aout daemontools:
http://cr.yp.to/daemontools.html
This is a classic mistake new Unix/Linux users make. /etc/init.d isn't in your path which is why you can't just run daemonLCD. Try using the full path (/etc/init.d/daemonLCD start) or prepending ./ (./daemonLCD start).
The script needs to be executable for either of the above to work.
thanks for the code above. I've been using it to figure out how to set up a daemon on a linux machine.
With some tweaking I could get it to work quite well.
But something puzzled me. And that was checking if the process was running, by checking the exists of the /var/run/myfile.pid
That's just the pidfile - NOT the process, right?
Take a look at /lib/lsb/init-functions.status_of_proc
status_of_proc () {
local pidfile daemon name status OPTIND
pidfile=
OPTIND=1
while getopts p: opt ; do
case "$opt" in
p) pidfile="$OPTARG";;
esac
done
shift $(($OPTIND - 1))
if [ -n "$pidfile" ]; then
pidfile="-p $pidfile"
fi
daemon="$1"
name="$2"
status="0"
pidofproc $pidfile $daemon >/dev/null || status="$?"
if [ "$status" = 0 ]; then
log_success_msg "$name is running"
return 0
elif [ "$status" = 4 ]; then
log_failure_msg "could not access PID file for $name"
return $status
else
log_failure_msg "$name is not running"
return $status
fi
}
That's only dealing with the success or failure of accessing the PID file.
Now, I'm building this daemon to go on a small device. I've discovered it's using BusyBox and I don't have init-functions :-(
But I do have pidof.
So I added
log_success_msg "pidof $NAME is $(pidof -x $NAME)" >> $LOGFILE
log_success_msg "PIDFILE of $NAME is" >> $LOGFILE
sed -n '1p' < $PIDFILE >> $LOGFILE
and checked $LOGFILE and lo and behold the numbers are different.
I did pstree -s -p on both numbers and
the pidof number spits out a very short tree, so it's for the root level process
but the $PIDFILE number vomits out branch after branch, so I don't think pstree can find the process.
Yes, the do_stop in Joseph Baldwin Roberts's code will kill both processes. But if the process is killed in another way e.g. kill -9 12345, the $PIDFILE is still there. So, the daemon will falsely believe the process is already running an refuse to start.

New to supervisor - how to make a daemon that works

I am new to supervisor. Below is my supervisor config file.
