Ubuntu :: Emergency Command To Kill Processes?
Jun 15, 2010I'm working with Eclipse and it's starting to misbehave now and then which completely freezes my computer. Is there any emergency command to kill such a misbehaving process so I don't have to reboot my computer?
I already have a emergency xkill icon in my taskbar and a [Ctrl]+[F1] console with "> sudo killall eclipse" pretyped(!) but sometimes it's even to late for this. What I would need is a emergency command/console that gets a guaranteed amount of process time so I can kill these process.
Ubuntu :: Kill A 'sh' Zombie?
Dec 10, 2010Sometimes I find a process named 'sh' running under my username with the status 'zombie' waiting channel 'do_exit' on my system. Its ID increments by 4 every time System Monitor updates its display.
Today, it was there immediately after booting The only thing I did after logging in is start the System Monitor
I can't kill it since its ID changes too fast.
I don't know how it gets started, but it bothers me since it is behavior I would expect from something that is trying to hide.
If I hover over its name, the tool tip contains 'sh'
Debian :: Can't Kill Zombie Process
Feb 2, 2016Sometimes (rarely) when I try to open VLC it wont open, but it stays in the background and takes 98-100% of one core.
The problem is that I can't kill that vlc-process.
Code: Select allkillall vlc
will NOT kill it
and
Code: Select allkill 31641
won't work either
top shows
Code: Select allPID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
31641 xxxxxxxx 20 0 1320248 64384 39120 S 100.0 1.6 44:51.94 vlc
Is there any way to kill the vlc-process (without booting the machine)? I also tried the "killall vlc" and "kill 31641" as root with the same results.
I have Debian jessie and the only "nonofficial" repositories I have enabled are
#google chrome
http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb stable main
#Backports
deb http://httpredir.debian.org/debian jessie-backports main
And from those I have installed only chrome, and wine-development, and I dont think those could have anything to do with this problem.
Booting the machine does work, but I don't want to boot my machine just now. This happens about once per week
Slackware :: Can't Kill Firefox Process On Slack 12.0 (zombie)
May 27, 2010Slack is 32bit. Frequently, firefox becomes unresponsive. I can close the window, but the process is not terminated. I am not able to restart firefox without rebooting.
When this problems occurs the firefox processes are not terminated by the 'kill' command. Example
Code:

General :: How To Find And Kill Remote Processes
Oct 28, 2010I am developing a daemon that is acting up and I am now unable to create any new processes (ie. I cannot start a new process to kill the other rogue processes). So, I need to be able to kill the processes from a remote machine. How do I do "kill" remotely without admin privileges? If I cannot kill my own process from a remote machine as a normal user then tell me so I can mark it as the correct answer.
View 3 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Kill Remote Processes Started With SSH?
Aug 26, 2009I've run into what is apparently an age-old SSH problem, which is that killing an ssh client process does not kill the remote process (unlike e.g. rsh). There seem to be lots of patches and a couple of open bugs on this topic that have been there for about 10 years or so... Having convinced myself by googling that there is no easy solution, I'm now looking for a workaround of some sort. I'm writing a testing framework so the processes I'm running remotely could be anything at all, i.e. I only have control of the client side. Also the remote processes are of course highly unstable and I need to be able to terminate them if they hang. ssh -t won't work for me as I don't necessarily have a terminal. Finding the remote process ID would be enough so I can do ssh <machine> kill <pid>, but I don't see any way to do that either. Just using ps, pgrep etc seems to suffer from not being able to uniquely identify the correct process, and killing the wrong process is of course very bad.

Nov 18, 2010All the kill idle user processes scripts I've seen don't take into account that the user might have multiple sessions open. Such is the case with one of our clients. Currently, every hour or two I need to do the following:
This will get the TTY and idle time for all users.
For each idle time over a half hour, I do the following (TTY is the TTY from the previous command with a space.
I then kill those processes.
There must be a way to do this automatically in a bash or perl script. I've tried both, but can't seem to get things to work properly.

Ubuntu :: Kill A Python Application From The Command Line?
Sep 27, 2010How do I kill a python application from the command line? For an example I have 2 applications running. The first is bleachbit and the second is furiusisomount.

I could kill them by ID number but if there was another way to do it so that it could be automated in a bash script.

May 3, 2010I don't know about your computer but when mine is working properly no process is sucking 95%+ over time. I would like to have some failsafe that kills any processes behaving like that. This comes to mind because when I woke up this morning my laptop had been crunching all night long on a stray chromium child process.
This can probably be done as a cron job, but before I make it a full time job creating something like this I'd thought I should check here. :) I hate reinventing the wheel.

Apr 11, 2011I have written a simple script which has to find required patterns from a bunch of files ( where each file is around 2 GB each,which contain the output of seq 1 10000000000000) on an 8 core machine.I am current forking 6 child processes which run simultaneously on 6 cores of the processor & have to search for the required pattern in 6 different files & inform the parent process when a pattern is found using a PIPE.
The problem is,when a child process is done reading a text file looking for a pattern,it is becoming a zombie process.It exits cleanly when i put a $SIG{CHLD} = "IGNORE"; in the script.Can any one tell me whats going on & how do i improve the communication between child and parent processes?

Dec 16, 2009I thought 'killall' would work, but I need to provide the "command" to kill. I'm really looking for a command that will kill all processes that have a particular file/directory open. Currently, my script fails on an 'umount' because there are several processes that have this filesystem open. The command 'lsof' is a good tool to determine which processes have a filesystem open, but I don't really want to write a script that parses through the 'lsof' output to capture PSIDs. Is there a linux command that can kill all processes that may have a particular filesystem open?

Apr 28, 2010I just switch to fedora from windows recently. And I love the terminal of fedora alot. The problem is when I run some command on the terminal, I need to wait for that command to finish before executing another command. This is very inconvinient, say If I open eclipse using the terminal, this eclipse program will hog to the terminal until I closed it. So if I want to use terminal again I have to open another one.Hence the question is: Is there any way open multi processes(command) using only one terminal?

General :: Create A New Terminal Window From The Command Line In RHEL 5.3
May 18, 2011I use putty to get to my RHEL 5.3 workstation from my Windows laptop.
Typically, if I want a new terminal on my windows 7 workstation from another terminal or mc, I have to type start and I will see a new terminal window running the default shell.
QUESTION : What is the equivalent command in RHEL 5.3 (and or solaris) to create a new terminal window from the command line ? I will be entering this command from the shell prompt or mc's command line.
In Windows, if I want to start another terminal and in that terminal, I want to run a program, I can do "start program.exe arg1 arg2". this will create a new terminal window and runs program.exe in that terminal window. I don't have to create a terminal and then in a separate step run the program. How can I do this in Linux ?
