Radtanapan, >> I tried them already but they didn't work. >> It's an application process which is developed from C/C++. Have you written signal handler functions into your code? Perhaps that would be the next step. It sounds like your application is getting stuck in a "blocking" section of code, waiting for some IO that never comes. It can't exit the loop unless the IO arrives, (Which it never will,) or until you break the execution via kill -9. This is not the right forum to get a C++ answer, but here's my attempt; You need to debug your code to find the section of code that your application is hanging in. Probably a conditional loop with impossible conditions. You also need to have signal-handling code in your application. You could use an existing signal like HUP, or CONT, or use a user-defined signal, (man signal(7) for more info,) to set a boolean "continue" flag. Add that boolean flag to the conditional loop you found while debugging, so that if the signal handler is triggered, the loop exits. now you can clean up your resources properly, before quitting/reloading/restarting/etc. This I just a guess though. If you need more detail on how to do the above, may I suggest google, as I have not written a C++ app from scratch since I was in college.

What about sending the hung process a different signal, like SIGHUP or SIGTERM to get it to clean up properly...? I cant answer your first question, since you would have to specify _WHAT_PROCESS_ is hanging.

For your second question, Yes there is a work around; Don't write code that hangs.. ;) -G Regards, Gavin McDonald ======================== EVI Logistic Enterprises email: me@xxxxxxxxxxxx phone: (604) 313-3845 > -----Original Message----- > From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list- > bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Radtanapan Janjanejob > Sent: Sunday, October 23, 2005 11:06 PM > To: redhat-list@xxxxxxxxxx > Subject: Hanging process cannot be killed except from "kill -9" > > I understand that this issue used to be posted in many web site .
