I run supervisord, but "ps -aef | grep > super" shows that nothing happens.

It means you're not starting the supervisord process as the root user. This isn't really an "error", it's telling you that you specified a "user" in the [supervisord] section of the config file, but since you're running supervisor as a non-root user, the supervisord process can't "drop privileges" (become a different user). Try: supervisord -n -edebug To start supervisor in the foreground and see messages from it. This may help you figure out what is wrong. - C _______________________________________________ Supervisor-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.supervisord.org/mailman/listinfo/supervisor-users
