Stopping a process
seliestel opened this issue · comments
I have a similar problem to a previous question: #44 (comment)
I installed immortal.run and immortalized a process on WSL2 Ubuntu to try it. But I didn't set up immortalctrl or immortaldir. Now, I cannot find the way to kill this process. When I run "immortalctrl" or "sudo immortalctrl" there are no processes listed. But I can see that they are running from htop. I have also not found any run.yml file anywhere or even an /.immortal directory anywhere in the file system.
Maybe the developers went too far in their search for immortality?
I would really appreciate any recommendations on how to kill this process. I guess it would not be helpful to uninstall and purge immortal since at this stage the process has been daemonized?
hi @seliestel normally you just type immortalctl and it will list/show the running process, to stop everything you do something like:
immortalctl halt *
You are running it like root or as a normal user?
@nbari Thanks for your reply. I was running it as normal user. The immortalctl instructions were not working. I actually solved it by rebooting. After the reboot, the process was not resuscitated. I guess that it had not created the file run.yml in the first place, that's why I couldn't find it.
