Summary	0002190: PID file is not cleaned up on startup
Description	PID file is not cleaned up on startup. This has led to a problem I'm describing below. A power shortage has happened, leaving the PID file behind. After reboot, another process has taken that PID, and SymmetricDS service does not start anymore, because it thinks it's already started! The solution to it is described here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2134732/pid-files-hanging-around-for-daemons-after-server-restart
Steps To Reproduce	The bug is random, depending on PID assignment by OS.

azarubkin 2015-02-12 12:26 reporter ~0000668	I suspect that you can reproduce the bug by manually creating the pid file which contains the pid of another process.
