Mix Release remote, stop, restart command are not working

I used mix release for deployment. After building a new version with mix release , I started the system as a daemon with IEx attached (daemon_iex ). I then checked the process ID of the running system using the pid command and ps aux | grep beam . It returned the same process ID. However, I cannot stop the running system using a remote command (stop ), either remote or restart . Each time a new version is built, I have to kill the process using the sudo kill -9 [pid] command and rerun the daemon_iex command. Can you explain what is happening with my system?

Thanks.

Hey @dunker1304 just adding here the issues I’m seeing myself most commonly:

  1. When packaging and deploying a release on the server stop remote restart rpc will only work if the hostname of the machine is aliased to 127.0.0.1 – This is my own most common mistake, as root this will fix it:

    sudo su
echo 127.0.0.1 $(hostname) >> /etc/hosts

  2. restart does not kill the process and does not create a new PID instead it calls System.restart() which restarts all elixir applications inside the existing PID. So it’s an internal restart “only”.
