Did the situation ever change with this? How about a work-around? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-08-01 13:25:48] [EMAIL PROTECTED] setproctitle() is only implemented on BSD; other systems that emulate this use a non-portable dangerous hack that makes certain assumptions about how the process will be run. Suspending until this situation changes. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-08-01 10:43:06] black at scene-si dot org Description: ------------ With linux it is sometimes useful to be able to change the process name (by identifying a process in the system error logs or for debugging for example).. The c(++) or the perl way doesnt work in php as far as i tried, and so i pressume that it is not possible itself. You can consult yourself with http://lightconsulting.com/~thalakan/process-title-notes.html - an extensive example of how the title should be changed Reproduce code: --------------- $argv[0] = "progname-debugval"; Expected result: ---------------- I expect that the programs process title would be changed by modifying $argv[0], or by introducing a new function which would change the process title respectively. Actual result: -------------- The process name in `ps` output of the respective program should change accordingly to the change of $argv[0]; ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=29479&edit=1
