Bug 269779

Datadog agent fails to restart on freebsd with the error below if the agent is already stopped:

# service datadog-agent restart
Error: Error stopping the agent: Post "https://localhost:5001/agent/stop": dial tcp [::1]:5001: connect: operation timed out

Current workaround that seems to fix the problem is adding a check and a sleep in the stop or restart in rc.d of datadogagent 
Below is a snip of current datadogagent rc.d
datadog_agent_restart()
{
        datadog_agent_stop &&  sleep 3 && datadog_agent_start
        return $?
}


datadog_agent_stop() {
        rc_pid=`check_pidfile ${pidfile} ${command}`
        if [ -n "${rc_pid}" ]; then
                ${command} ${command_args} stop
        fi
        return $?
}
