Seems to have created some new ones. I have a cron job (a bash script) that runs every 6 minutes, polling and downloading info off the web. With the 2006-03-09 snapshot, it works fine. However, I have experienced problems with most snapshots after it, including this one - the full 2006-04-24 16:48 GMT snapshot. I have always had to revert back to 2006-03-09. The problem is the script hangs at various places and the stuck processes keep building up: > ps -a PID PPID PGID WINPID TTY UID STIME COMMAND 26264 1 26264 26264 con 78809 15:39:13 /usr/bin/rxvt 368 26264 368 2252 0 78809 15:39:13 /usr/bin/bash 28904 1 28904 28904 ? 18 15:39:15 /usr/bin/cygrunsrv 2020 28904 2020 1972 ? 18 15:39:15 /usr/sbin/cygserver 2716 1 2716 2716 ? 18 15:39:17 /usr/bin/cygrunsrv 2600 2716 2716 27672 ? 18 15:39:17 /usr/sbin/cron 1720 1 45204 37852 ? 78809 16:24:02 /usr/bin/diff 43456 1 37736 37680 ? 78809 16:30:02 /usr/bin/diff 43252 1 36456 43616 ? 78809 16:36:02 /usr/bin/mv 39364 1 22988 1628 ? 78809 16:42:02 /usr/bin/date 33100 368 33100 33496 0 78809 16:46:32 /usr/bin/ps The diff, mv and date processes above are examples of hung scripts. Further, I have to kill these processes using the task monitor: kill reports 'No such process'.
