Hello, I think this is working as intended.
When you "kill -9", that is sending the SIGKILL signal -- you are asking the program to shut down *uncleanly* and immediately. The mosh-client dies immediately, and it doesn't have a chance to let the server know that it won't be coming back. The server has no way to distinguish this from a case where the client simply lost its network connection (but might regain it later). Please use a nicer signal to kill the mosh-client. (E.g. the default for "kill", or just exit from within the client.) Then it will have a chance to shut down the connection cleanly. (You might still have the problem if you exit the client while it doesn't have a network connection -- then it again doesn't have a chance to let the server know that it's quitting. But that is a different problem that is hard to escape given mosh's design of everlasting, roamable connections.) ** Changed in: mosh (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Keith Winstein (keithw) ** Also affects: mosh Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: mosh Assignee: (unassigned) => Keith Winstein (keithw) ** Changed in: mosh (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1446982 Title: Wrong kill mode on shutdown To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mosh/+bug/1446982/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
