Hello,
This question may be relevant to running "pidof" generally on processes
which were run by passing an argument in the command line;
To me it occurred with python.
I am running a python script of xen.
I want to be able to get the pid of that process by running "pidof".
The command line for running the script is
/xend start
(but in fact it runs "python ./xend start" because the first line in "xend"
script is "#!/usr/bin/env python".)
("python ./xend start"" is also what we get (among other processes) from
ps -aux |grep python for that specific process I am talkng about).
I want to be able to get the pid of that process by runnning "pidof".
pidof "python ./xend start" gives nothing (in Bash and in Tcshell).
pidof "python" gives 4 processes (one of them is the requested one).
Moreover:
2502 is the process id of the wanted process.
cat /proc/2502/cmdline
gives:
python./xendstart
but trying pidof "python./xendstart" (also with one apostrphe or none at
all)
gave nothing.
Any idea?
Amir
