Potential Errors When Stopping on Linux
In some unexpected instances, you may see the following message when running the stop on Linux:
"Time out on DTP Enterprise Pack process termination. Please kill all processes manually. (Refer to the documentation)"
This message only triggers if any of the children processes of the main DTP Enterprise Pack application (typically one of the service processes) started but was not killed completely. These processes must be terminated before starting DTP Enterprise Pack again.
- Run following command:
pgrep node or pgrep -f <installation home>/nodejs/bin/node
This command will print out all processes that DTP Enterprise Pack started. - Run the kill command using the same argument to kill these process:
pkill node
orpkill -f <installation home>/nodejs/bin/node
