Re: Parallel::ForkManager leaves a zombie process from last child

I have not ever used this module. But I don't see signal handlers in its code. Probably you should handle SIGINT (Ctrl-C) by yourself. Also, related ticket https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=35659

If I kill, end the job = no problem. Problem occurs when script is working so I don't care about ctrl+c I don't want to have zombie every client connection: new client connection -> child -> do something -> end child process -> wait for another connection Last child is always a zombie. `5989 pts/5 S+ 0:00 \_ grep test.pl 5975 pts/4 S+ 0:00 \_ /usr/bin/perl ./test.pl 5987 pts/4 Z+ 0:00 \_ [test.pl] <defunct>` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
