Are you using any C modules? These are the most prone to problems -- memory leaks, segmentation faults, etc. You might not notice the problems until the module has been loaded for days (like in Webware). I haven't seen any complaints about this for MySQLdb, though (but other database adapters have had occasional problems). > Restarting it solves the problem, but often it can't be restarted > without booting the system to get rid of > all the 'ghost' processes. > > Has anyone observed something similar? > And has anyone and idea how to solve the problem? I sometimes get ghost processes that hang around for a short while, but not long. Sometimes a port gets left open (I think FreeBSD was having the most problems), but I think that's been somewhat resolved (or at least I haven't had problems for a while, and no one's mentioned it on the list). If the port is open, you'll get an error when restarting the AppServer (Address In Use or something). Have you tried killing the server more forcefully? Like "killall -9 python" ? What platform are you on? Ian ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: OSDN - Tired of that same old cell phone?
