Hi all,

i have q parent-process that forks some childs. Each child goes into an endless loop until he get the term-signal. This will break the endless-loop and the programm stops.

But if the child get the term-signal at this moment when he is in the http-request it comes back with an http-timeout.

Also if i use the USR1 signal.

Have someone any idear wich signal is not used by the HTTP-Modules?

Thanks waizi 

my $exitflag = 1;
$SIG{TERM} = sub { $exitflag = 0 };


while( $exitflag ) {

    my $ua = new LWP::UserAgent;
    $ua->agent("AgentName/0.1 " . $ua->agent);
    $ua->timeout(300);

    my $req = HTTP::Request->new(GET => $urlsafe);
    
    #
    # if the signal comes in this function, i get an timeout as result
    my $res = $ua->request($req);

    #... do something

}
