The problem is the camermonitor doesn't always delete the
~/.cameramonitor.pid file and *sometimes* that PID is in use by another
program.
Replacing the following function in
/usr/shared/pyshared/cameramonitor/utils.py will fix the problem by
checking if the PID that ~/.cameramonitor.pid refers to actually is
running cameramonitor:
# Check if the process with pid is running
def pid_running(pid):
if os.path.isdir('/proc/'+pid):
fd = open('/proc/'+pid+'/cmdline')
cmd = fd.read()
return cmd.strip('\x00').endswith('cameramonitor')
else:
return False
