{bb} RE: {bb} runbb.sh stop - fails with "kill: no such process"

["Strandell, Ralf" <Ralf.Strandell@silja.com>]

Hi,

I've had similar problems (for five years?).
I tend to ignore those and nothing bad happens. 

Use "ps -fu bb" to check what processes bb has running.
If, after a few seconds, you only see "a million" sleeps,
then the shutdown was successful.

$BBHOME/tmp/BBPID is a list of process ids related to BB.
If that list gets outdated for some reason, then you'll
See these errors at shutdown.

Have you ever restarted any og the bb processes manually?

Subject: {bb} runbb.sh stop  - fails with "kill: no such process"

Hello

I have some problems with the BB stop script. Everytime i want to stop BB it fails, if i then relaunch "runbb.sh stop" once ore twice again, the stopping is successfull.

At the moment i am installing the init.d scripts and for this reason it should be possible to shut down the BB properly.

Has anyone an idea why this happens?


Thanks a lot for any help

Sincerly

Manfred Pürro
