--index argument must be removed from the sidekiq start script

[dmitry]

As of sidekiq 6.0 daemonization removal (sidekiq/sidekiq@5987a8c#diff-411201f0104d91346964914342a07cefL324) --index argument is not available anymore.
If you try to deploy sidekiq 6.0 with --index the deployment will be failed with invalid option: --index.

By the way this argument haven't been used for a long time already (from the removed source code):

this index remains here for backwards compatibility but none of the Sidekiq family use this value anymore. it was used by Pro's original reliable_fetch.

faced with same issue. @dmitry, how did you manage it?

[dmitry]

@Senegal at the moment downgraded to the sidekiq 5.2
It is not enough just to remove --index as sidekiq 6.0 removed daemonization from it's core and now daemonization should be done by yourself.

Any update on this issue ? Thank you

[seuros]

can you try #236 ?
I tested it with a deployment using systemd.

Looks, the problem is still actual, any news to merge #236 ?

[dmitry]

@rusikf would be great if you try and write some feedback to #236.
