Hello,
It has to be an update. I had mentioned it a while back, with not much response. I
am having the same issue with my Raq 4s after installing the December and January
patches. Unfortunatly, I applied them one right after another, so I don't know which
on caused the issue. I tried uninstalling the "Apache & mod_ssl Security Update 2.0.1
" pkg, but it didn't help.
Anyway, to get around it, I just added a cron job to kill them. The normal kill
doesn't work, cause the process is already Defunct, but if you do it like this, it
should work:
Create a .sh script:
#!/bin/sh
kill -9 `ps -ef | grep defunct | grep FILENAME(of defunct process) | awk '{print $3}'`
So, if the process is called banner.cgi it would look like this:
#!/bin/sh
kill -9 `ps -ef | grep defunct | grep banner.cgi | awk '{print $3}'`
Then, add it to crontab to run every 15 minutes or more often if you have a lot of
hits.
Hope this helps.
James
