My application runs as a background process on Linux. It is currently started at the command line in a Terminal window. Recently a user was executing the application for a while and it died mysteriously. The text: Killed was on the terminal. This happened two times. I asked if someone at a different Terminal used the kill command ...
Hello, I've wanted to test if with multiply processes I'm able to use more than 4GB of ram on 32bit O.S (mine: Ubuntu with 1GB ram). So I've written a small program that mallocs slightly less then 1GB, and do some action on that array, and ran 5 instances of this program vie forks. The thing is, that I suspect that O.S killed 4 of them...
I dont understand why my code does not work. This is my code. I don't know why I'm get an error segment. Could somebody explain the reason to me? #include <iostream> #include <string> #include <sys/types.h> #include <unistd.h> int id_process; void manager_signal () { kill (id_process, SIGKILL); kill (getppid(),SIGKILL); } in...
Pervious answers to this questions have focused on forks: kill background process when shell script exit How to make child process die after parent exits? Are child processes created with fork() automatically killed when the parent is killed? For this question, I'm just asking about calls to the 'system' function. Say I have a scri...

My main process calls an external library method. This method sometimes hangs. I can not fix the external library because another company is responsible for it. I want to use a Thread for the library calls with a defined execution timer. When the method call takes to long, the Thread with the Runnable in which the method call is placed ...
Question: I'm interested to know the best practice for killing a long standing operation that is running as a background thread (lets call this thread WorkerThread) in Java 1.2.

I am debugging a memory leak in an application running on Sun's JDK 1.4.2_18. It appears that this version supports the command line param -XX:+HeapDumpOnCtrlBreak which supposedly causes the JVM to dump heap when it encounters a control-break. How does one send this to a background process on a Linux box? It appears that kill signals...
Hi, I have this VBScript code to terminate one process Const strComputer = "." Dim objWMIService, colProcessList Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" & "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2") Set colProcessList = objWMIService.ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM Win32_Process WHERE Name = 'Process.exe'"...
Hey everybody, I wrote a program that forks some processes with fork(). I want to kill all child- and the mother process if there is an error. If I use exit(EXIT_FAILURE) only the child process is killed. I am thinking about a system("killall [program_name]") but there must be a better way... Thank you all! Lennart ...
I know there are many questions and answers about this, but I am looking for an efficient and robust solution.

Is it possible to kill a Java thread without raising an exception in it? This is just for testing purposes - I want to simulate a case when the entire computer dies mid-thread.

Question: How can I determine all processes in the child's Process Tree to kill them? I have an application, written in C# that will: Get a set of data from the server, Spawn a 3rd party utility to process the data, then Return the results to the server. This is working fine. But since a run consumes a lot of CPU and may take as lo...
We've got issues with our program potentially hanging in certain situations, is there a way to search and destroy your own program with windows calls without using task manager. It probably wouldn't make sense to include this in the program itself, but as a bundled thing no one would see. What's the best way to go about doing this, h...
C# .NET 3.5 I have a console application that is being called by another application on the computer. This console app runs continuously, and listens for data on stdin from the "parent" process. However, when the parent is stopped or killed, the console app that it started continues. Under normal circumstances, it sits and idles wa...

The aim of the test is to simulate a serious fatal error, peeking into kernel due to the socket failure. It is good practise in cases such as crash-recovery. 9-signalling all postgres processes ignite errors immediately after the command: $ psql psql: could not connect to server: Connection refused Is the server running locally...
