This frustrating little problem...
When having a running process, ctrl-c or kill doesn't work on my system.
You have to use kill -9.
A simple example:
ping 127.0.0.1
this process is meant to run as long as you want, then you ctrl-c it to
get your statistics.
However, ctrl-c doesn't work. No react

updates during the weekend. Suddenly above error message.
The setup is Horde, Imp, Php3, Postgresql, Netscape, Imap4, exim
