Re: Process forking issues

[Corey Oordt]

I wrote some code that might help you out: it in the thread: http://groups.google.com/group/django-users/browse_frm/thread/b36f4ca10a424161/c5131410e5d548b1 Depending on how you spawn a process, it can either wait for each, or become a child process. Calling the daemonize method with the appropriate parameters, should launch a new independent process. You could call it several times and get several independent processes.

I was able to get the code working through closing the django db connection just after I'd forked my processes, but it seems that what I thought I was doing wasn't really what I thought I was doing. Essentially I wanted to be able to run multiple tasks simultaneously. I thought forking x numbers of processes would do this for me, but it seems not. It looks to me like what happens in this case is that if you try to fork 10 processes simultaneously it actually waits for the first forked process to finish before starting the second one. I think what I need to look into is multi-threading instead, but that could be kind of complicated... More investigation needed.
