Description
When using run_style=init, the init script for chef-solr (and I think the other daemons) does not use the -P option to start chef-solr. As a result, chef-solr defaults to using /tmp/chef-solr.pid instead of the pidfile specified in /etc/sysconfig/chef-solr or the default in /etc/init.d/chef-solr. Because of this service chef-solr stop/restart fails.
The fix is to add -P "$pidfile" in /etc/init.d/chef-solr in the start() function right before the "$options":
daemon $prog -d -c "$config" -u "$user" -g "$group" -L "$logfile" -P "$pidfile" "&>/dev/null"
Note too that you'll have to chown /var/run/chef to be owned by chef:chef.
Also need to add -p "$pidfile" to call to killproc in stop() function:
killproc -p "$pidfile" $prog
