Etherpad-lite restarting

[spruce]

Hey,
I'm deploying Etherpad-lite with pm2 and to kill it with pm2 stop id it has to kill all the child processes, too.

Thanks for your great development.

Currently it doesn't do that ?
If child processes are not detached from the master process, on pm2 stop it should kill the entire tree

With pm2 version 0.9.x it ran fine by just invoking server.js. Since the last changes by @Unitech it seems the settings.json has to be specified.

I'm running Etherpad Lite successfully with

pm2 start `pwd`/node_modules/ep_etherpad-lite/node/server.js -s `pwd`/settings.json --name "Etherpad Lite"

in fork mode.

from its directory and after bin/run.sh has been invoked at least once.
Important is the settings addition, as it won't find it else and run without them (cluser mode, dirty.db, irregular port).

@spruce @JohnMcLear Can you confirm? I believe this issue can be closed.

If you want to try it now:

$ npm install git://github.com/Unitech/pm2#development -g

Did it make it into develop?
