hi... i use BSD::Resource to limit the ressources of the apache tasks. this works fine but now i want to clean up afterwards but i don't know how to catch a killed task... here is what i tried with signals:
my entries in httpd.conf: PerlModule Apache::Resource PerlSetEnv PERL_RLIMIT_CPU 120:150 PerlSetEnv PERL_RLIMIT_AS 30000000:35000000 PerlChildInitHandler Apache::Resource and this is how i tried to catch the signals: sub cleanup { die "cleanup called..."; } $SIG{XFSZ} = \&cleanup; i use linux, thus i have to use RLIMIT_AS and so maybe XFSZ is the wrong signal for the RAM limit. which do i have to use then? but i tried $SIG{XCPU} but it doesnt work as well. it just killed the task at soft limit without calling "cleanup". what is wrong? or is there another possibility for cleaning up? probably there is a handler i can use which will be called when a program is finished, if so, how can i check if the program has ended as it shoulds or if it was killed by BSD::resource ? thanx in advance! best regards, christoph bergmann
