Hello, I'm writing a little supervisor of some python scripts. To check if the scrips are running I'm using the ps -o pid,fname command on both RH Linux and solaris 10. All the scripts are launched using "python script.py" command, they are not launched with exec permissions.
I don't know why the fname of the python interpreter changes across platforms. I saw a "isapytho" in some solaris 10 platforms. I saw "python2." in some Linux platforms. On most platforms the value is "python". Why? Ok, I know that I can easily work around the problem by not using "fname" and parse the ps output in another way, but I don't understand how is possible that the combination of ps and python behaves so badly. Any idea? Regards, Cesare -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
