Hi,
Could someone please help me with the following code as I don't want it
to use /proc (my perl skils are very low)
## Check to see if that process is running
if (! -d "/proc/$pid") {
## Return success if the PID is not running
printmsg("DEBUG => checkPidFile() returning 0 since the PID specified in the
pid file is not running.", 2);
return(0);
}
## Open the PID cmdline file so we can get the process name for the running PID.
if (! open(PIDFILE, "/proc/$pid/cmdline")) {
## Return an error if it exists but we couldn't open it.
printmsg("DEBUG => checkPidFile() returning 2 because for some reason I wasn't
able to open the file: /proc/$pid/cmdline", 2);
return(2);
}
## proc/xxx/cmdline can be split by \0 to get the different parts
my $pidname = <PIDFILE>;
$pidname =~ s/\0/ /;
if ($pidname =~ /dspampd/io) {
printmsg("DEBUG => checkPidFile() returning 3 the process referenced in the
pid file [$pidname] is another dspampd process.", 2);
return(3);
}
Thanks,
