            <title>[SERVER-1706] --pidfilepath description is misleading</title>
                <link>https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-1706</link>
                <project id="10000" key="SERVER">Core Server</project>
                    <description>&lt;p&gt;Problem:&lt;br/&gt;
The help text for the --pidfilepath argument is misleading, this is what it says in 1.6.1&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;--pidfilepath arg     directory for pidfile (if not set, no pidfile is &lt;br/&gt;
                        created)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;However if you start mongo up as follows, you do not get a pid file but you do not get an error&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;shell&amp;gt; mongod --pidfile /foo/bar&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;test@alvin-ubuntu104-desktop:~$ sudo mongod --pidfilepath /data/db&lt;br/&gt;
Mon Aug 30 20:09:25 MongoDB starting : pid=30575 port=27017 dbpath=/data/db/ 32-bit &lt;br/&gt;
&lt;span class=&quot;error&quot;&gt;&amp;#91;...&amp;#93;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
Mon Aug 30 20:09:25 db version v1.7.0-pre-, pdfile version 4.5&lt;br/&gt;
Mon Aug 30 20:09:25 git version: e2c5acbe4b511ca74b9db4ec556e6dc488263b2e&lt;br/&gt;
Mon Aug 30 20:09:25 sys info: Linux domU-12-31-39-01-70-B4 2.6.21.7-2.fc8xen #1 SMP Fri Feb 15 12:39:36 EST 2008 i686 BOOST_LIB_VERSION=1_37&lt;br/&gt;
Mon Aug 30 20:09:25 &lt;span class=&quot;error&quot;&gt;&amp;#91;initandlisten&amp;#93;&lt;/span&gt; waiting for connections on port 27017&lt;br/&gt;
Mon Aug 30 20:09:25 &lt;span class=&quot;error&quot;&gt;&amp;#91;websvr&amp;#93;&lt;/span&gt; web admin interface listening on port 28017&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This argument needs to be a filename, so the correct syntax is&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;shell&amp;gt; mongod --pidfilepath /data/db/my.pid&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;test@alvin-ubuntu104-desktop:~$ ls -l /data/db/my.pid&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;del&gt;rw-r&lt;/del&gt;&lt;del&gt;r&lt;/del&gt;- 1 root root 0 2010-08-30 20:37 /data/db/my.pid&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;p&gt;Solution:&lt;br/&gt;
a) if --pidfilepath is a directory, emit a warning message but continue to startup&lt;br/&gt;
b) change the argument description to say it needs to be a filename and not a directory&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Reproduce:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul class=&quot;alternate&quot; type=&quot;square&quot;&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;start mongo with a valid directory name&lt;br/&gt;
shell&amp;gt; mongod --pidfilepath /foo/bar&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;


&lt;p&gt;Workaround:&lt;br/&gt;
Startup with a filename e.g.&lt;br/&gt;
shell&amp;gt; mongod --pidfilepath /for/bar/my.pid&lt;/p&gt;
