[Bug 926433] Re: indicator-weather leaves .pid file in /tmp and will not restart
I agree that, given how often indicator-weather is crashing (daily for me it seems), this bug will make it hard for a lot of people to even restart the indicator. So please consider releasing this for precise. In the meantime, people can work around the problem by simply removing the file in /tmp. The file name varies because it has a uid in it. This should work: $ rm -f /tmp/indicator-weather-$UID.pid ** Summary changed: - indicator-weather leaves .pid file in /tmp and will not restart + indicator-weather refuses to start, saying Another instance of this program is already running when that is not true. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/926433 Title: indicator-weather refuses to start, saying Another instance of this program is already running when that is not true.

[Bug 926433] Re: indicator-weather leaves .pid file in /tmp and will not restart
Vadim. Thanks for commiting the change but you have not used my patch. In fact, I think the change you have made instead breaks the pid detection even more. Please could you have another look at my patch and how you have made the change. My patch uses the ls -1 to list just the file names, one per line, and the regex $XX^ (i.e starting and ending) to match exactly files. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/926433 Title: indicator-weather leaves .pid file in /tmp and will not restart To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/weather-indicator/+bug/926433/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 926433] Re: indicator-weather leaves .pid file in /tmp and will not restart
I've now checked the source code. Unfortunatly, I did not check the contents of the .pid file before deleting it. However, I can see from my directory listing that the length was only 3 characters. Looking at the pid checking code, perhaps the 3 characters matched in part some other process number. I've attached a potential patch to avoid this. ** Attachment added: patch https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-weather/+bug/926433/+attachment/2712418/+files/patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/926433 Title: indicator-weather leaves .pid file in /tmp and will not restart To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-weather/+bug/926433/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
