Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
Confirmed: php5-fpm(8) documents USR2 as the reload signal, and the upstart script defaults to HUP. Workaround (untested): add the line "reload signal USR2" to /etc/init/php5-fpm.conf. This also exists in Debian so should be filed there too. I'll do it when I look at fixing this in Ubuntu, unless someone else gets to it first. ** Changed in: php5 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: php5 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to php5 in 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-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
