Some possible workarounds (off the top of my head): 1) Restart instead. 2) Send a USR2 signal to the correct PID manually (get it with "status php5-fpm"). 3) Create /etc/init/php5-fpm.override file with the single line "reload signal USR2" in it.
Please report which of these workarounds works for you, and I'll change the bug description at the top so that others will see it easily. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1242376 Title: "reload php5-fpm" crashes To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/php5/+bug/1242376/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
