[Bug 343227] New: startproc/killproc: missing feature: allow multiple instances of the same app to be started
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=343227 Summary: startproc/killproc: missing feature: allow multiple instances of the same app to be started Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: unspecified Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: werner@novell.com ReportedBy: dmueller@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Hi, the concrete (customer :) use-case is to start squid with 3 different config files. which does not work right now because startproc believes the process already to be running, even though the command line parameters are different. I would suggest to disable the magic "detect process by exe hardlink" logic if the -p parameter was given, but any other solution that allows 3 instances of squid to be started without having to copy the executable binary to a different name is fine. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
