Linux set -x when run from a process on Azure

Question

I have bash script which sets the environment and runs a java process. The script calls "set -x". I have an init.d service which runs a guard java program which does all kinds of guarding tasks including identifying that the process is dead and running the shel that starts it. On AWS it works perfect. I moved to azure and the bash script works perfect when run from command line, but doesn't work when run from the guarding java process. taking down the "set -x" solved it and now it runs also on azure. Any idea what can cause the issue? Thanks, Nir

Answer 1

What is the OS version you are using on Azure. We are not able to reproduce the issue. We also ran a init.d service which runs a sample java program which in turn invokes a shell script which has set -x inside it.

Is set -x important for you to run your script?, because all it does is provide a verbose of each statement that is being executed in your script.
