[Bug 878600] Re: 'service start rabbitmq-server' does not fully detach from parent

[Scott Moser]

Once rabbitmq-server had been installed, I can reproduce this with:
$ ssh $host "sudo service rabbitmq-server start"

Ie, no 'tee' is necessary.

This, however, does not exhibit the hang:
$ sudo service rabbitmq-server start >out 2>&1"


This patch seems to fix it for me:
