------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Apr 21 18:54:29 +0000 2008 ------- So, for somebody that *does* have the "defunct process" problem, can they strace -f /path/to/soffice > /tmp/strace.log 2>&1 insert the pdf and then exit OOo and attach the strace.log here just to see if we can see what exactly gets executed because here locally I get no dead processes, and I'd like to be able to reproduce this to make sure I'd address the right problem. FWIW, We try pstoedit ImageMagick's convert and then gs to try and make a preview image for an .eps which has none. We use "osl_executeProcess_WithRedirectedIO" which is possibly one of our most baroque functions in OOo. And looking through the implementation of that and the other uses of it and it might be that we need to a) add osl_Process_WAIT to the launch options b) and/or call osl_joinProcess on the aProcess handle c) and/or use osl_freeProcessHandle and then go and fix a lot of the *other* osl_executeProcess_WithRedirectedIO that don't use osl_freeProcessHandle --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
