General :: Using Killall To Kill Mysql Processes?

Aug 14, 2009

I'm attempting to use 'killall' to kill all mysql processes, however after using the command mysql processes are still alive. 'killall mysql' says no processes were killed, and while 'killall mysql_safe' gives no message there are still mysql processes alive afterwards.

Code:

# killall mysql
mysql: no process killed
# killall mysqld_safe

Software :: Unable To Kill Process With Kill -9

Jan 13, 2011

the process is mcelog. When I do as root kill -9 2323 which is pid of mcelog the process is not killed. I tried doing the same from top, press K and enter pid of mcelog. doing ps auwx | grep mcelog I see there are several results. I tried killing all of them like kill -9 2355 2341 3425 2345. But re-running the above commands still shows them as running. How else would I troubleshoot this to avoid restarting of the box.

Fedora :: Bind C-u To Kill-whole-line In Bash Doesn't Work

Mar 19, 2010

I'd like control-u to erase the whole line, instead of only erasing backwards from the current point. I tried

bind -r "C-u"
bind -r C-u
bind -r ^U

to erase the current binding for control-u, but after running any / all of the above, bind -p still tells me

"C-u": unix-line-discard

bind "C-u":kill-whole-line doesn't work either. How can I change the binding of control-u to kill-whole-line?

Ubuntu :: Why Cannot Run Kill From Logout

Jun 23, 2010

Since the OpenOffice quickstarter effectively disables the shutdown and hibernate buttons under Lucid, I put a command into my .logout to kill the quickstarter:
Code:
kill `ps aux | awk '/soffice.bin/ && (/quickstart/ || /splash-pipe/) {print $2}'`
This works fine if I execute it manually, but in the .logout file it seems to have no effect.

Ubuntu :: Kill A 'sh' Zombie?

Dec 10, 2010

Sometimes 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'

Ubuntu :: Can't Kill Firefox-bin

May 13, 2011

I have this problem where I keep losing internet and the only way to fix is to restart the computer, I think it's because my wifi card isn't completely compatible with ndiswrapper. Anyways when ever this happens I am unable to shutdown properly because ubuntu says firefox-bin is still running, when I try to shutdown it just hangs. I tried killing firefox-bin with the system monitor but that didn't work, then I tried killing it the terminal by using killall -9 firefox-bin. This too doesn't work. How can I kill firefox-bin?

Ubuntu :: Xfdesktop Keeps Restarting When Kill ?

Jul 11, 2010

On Xubuntu Lucid, How do I kill Xfce's desktop (xfdesktop) without it restarting almost immediately? Right now, when I kill it (using built-in kill; /bin/kill; pkill) it restarts. I don't want that. Xfce seems to no longer have the option to choose if I want a desktop or not.

Ubuntu Servers :: Kill Processes With Name=x && %mem>y?

Sep 22, 2010

I have an issue on one of my servers whereby the [normally very helpful] du and tar programs are somehow using up too much or my system resources (du 40% mem, tar 20% mem) and causing problems. I am after a command which is able to kill a process without knowledge of a PID but by process name e.g. "du" and memory usage e.g. >= 10%.

Something along the lines of:
kill $(pgrep du) grep %MEM > 10

Although I know that is invalid syntax I cannot fathom the correct/best way to achieve this end!

Ubuntu :: Hotkey To Kill Application?

May 14, 2011

I had opened Thunderbird and discovered I had no cursor control. Couldn't close it, couldn't exit it, couldn't switch windows. I couldn't even shut down using that button.

I figured there must be a kill command similar to Windoze cntrl + alt + del that would allow me to close that application.Is there such a keyboard hot key for doing this?

Ubuntu :: Utility To Kill Selected Window?

Jan 3, 2010

Before I was forced to delete (actually rename) my .gnome2 directory in order to get a fresh start, I had an icon on my panel (task-bar? SSSsssss ) that would kill the next window that I clicked. Useful when a program stops responding.My problem: Rebuilding my panel, I don't recall the name of that utility. I had originally copied it off one either the Applications menu or the System menu but I can't find it now.My questions:What is the name of that kill-next-clicked-window utility?What directory (presumably some place under .gnome2) holds the links to the programs on the panels? My search under the renamed .gnome2 directory yields a lot of nearly empty directories and nothing I can identify as my objective. (In case I get it into my head to manually edit the panel - not likely.)

Ubuntu :: Close Terminal, Kill The App That's Running?

May 15, 2010

So, this may have something to do specifically with conky, but I don't understand how sometimes when I run 'conky' from the terminal and then once it loads I close the terminal, it kills conky. But other times, I do the same thing, wait for it to load, and it just keeps running! In both cases, I don't get a "user@computer~:$" prompt back after running 'conky' either. That happens sometimes with other things like gedit too..

Ubuntu :: Emergency Command To Kill Processes?

Jun 15, 2010

I'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 Java And Prevent It From Respawning?

Jul 19, 2010

I run Freenet occasionally, but not all the time. Freenet doesn't run unless told to, but Java loads on every boot and sits there and hogs resources for no reason whatsoever. What's worse, as soon as I kill it with fire (sudo kill -9 "PID"), it respawns within seconds. How do I make Java not load unless required? And die and stay dead when I want it dead?
