Status: Open Priority: 3 Submitted By: Tom Lukeywood (tomlukeywood-guest) Assigned to: Nobody (None) Summary: programs continuing to run after being closed Category: None Group: None Resolution: None Initial Comment: I am not sure that this bug is related specificly to debian gnu/hurd but i have not experienced in using the Linux kernel so i though i would report it just in case. i have just installed Debian gnu/hurd on a physical machine and logged in as the root user. i then made a perl file with nano and saved it. i then exited nano ran the script then opened up nano again and received a message informing me that: File factorial.pl is being edited (by root with nano 2.7.4 PID 699): continue? i then ran ps to check what was running and i had 2 nano's running i then repeated the process above and found that about half the time i got the same result and i ended up with 4 nano's running. but after looking at ps in more detail i saw that i also had 3 bashes and one sh still running (these where commands i have typed before) i am not sure if its normal for bash or sh to keep running in the background after launching a new bash session but i seems to be unusual that nano would continue running as well despite me exiting the application with Ctrl-X. I am not a very skilled gnu/Linux user to i could just be missing something here but i though i might as well report this just in case. in case i visit this site infrequently and you want more information from me my email is: tomlukeyw...@fastmail.co.uk ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Tom Lukeywood (tomlukeywood-guest) Date: 2018-02-14 09:06 Message: I have installed Debian gnu/hurd again and no such thing occurred i can only assume i did type Ctrl-Z. everything is working fine now thank you for your help. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Tom Lukeywood (tomlukeywood-guest) Date: 2018-02-13 14:20 Message: I definitely used Ctrl-X. i have since installed another operating system on the laptop i used so i will try to install debian gnu/hurd on the same laptop again to see if i can reproduce the behaviour. also i am using debian-hurd-2017-i386-NETINST-1.iso ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Samuel Thibault (sthibault) Date: 2018-02-12 20:43 Message: Are you sure you typed Ctrl-X, and not Ctrl-Z? The latter would put the process in the background indeed. I have never experienced such kind of program remaining behind. It'd be useful to install the debugging version of the program and attach to them with gdb, to get a backtrace to see where they would be stuck. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://alioth.debian.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=411594&aid=315928&group_id=30628
