New Comment:
Please do not submit the same bug more than once. An existing
bug report already describes this very problem. Even if you feel
that your issue is somewhat different, the resolution is likely
to be the same. Because of this, we hope you add your comments
to the existing bug instead.
Thank you for your interest in PHP.

A process spawned by backticks (backquotes) or with shell_exec() hang
around indefinitely if I cancel the page while it's running. The
program I'm running is a Perl script...
$list = `mp-list 2>&1`;
$list2 = shell_exec("mp-list 2>&1");
$status = shell_exec("mp-add $file 2>&1");
(it's taking too long because of a bug in our networking code -- maybe
this is why its not dying?)
When I do a ps ax (several minutes later) I get a whole bunch of stuff
like:
27030 ? S 0:00 /usr/sbin/apache
27031 ? S 0:00 sh -c mp-list 2>&1
27032 ? R 0:23 /usr/bin/perl /usr/local/bin/mp-list
Happens when I 'cancel' in MS IE 5 and in OmniWeb (Macintosh
browsers).
thanks
reed
