I hope this is the right place to direct this question. I've been trying to track down a python issue that is specific to freebsd. The Cherokee webserver (http://www.freshports.org/www/cherokee/) has a python gui backend to admin the server. It works perfectly under Linux. Unfortunately it doesn't work correctly under FreeBSD. There aren't a lot of people that use FreeBSD to run cherokee so the main developers don't seem to interested in fixing it. I'm trying to track down the bug.

If cherokee is started from rc.d scripts or command line it works fine. You can stop the server cleanly. But once it's started from the admin interface (which uses python) it can't be stopped. The admin interface shows that it sees cherokee running on the correct pid but once started from the admin interface the server can't be stopped (/usr/local/etc/rc.d/cherokee stop stops working also). Any information would be greatly appreciated since it's hard finding issues specific to freebsd/python. And the basic attitude seems to be if it works on linux that's good enough.

Has anyone experienced this sort of problem on FreeBSD or perhaps could direct me to something that would explain what's going on.

Bug report on the issue:

Script that handles starting and stopping the server:

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
