Cannot kill a process with kill -9
Hello everyone, I have a process that I want to kill. I have tried Code:
kill-9 PID but it doesn't work. I have tried Code:
preap PID but it doesn't work too. The parent of my process is the process whose PID is 1, so I can't kill it. My OS is a Solaris 9. Can anyone help me understand what's going ? Thanks, |

note: Code:
kill-9 should be Code:
kill -9 What return code do you get: Code:
ps -ef | grep pid kill -9 pid echo "return code is: $?" ps -ef | grep pid Please post the result |

Code:
kill -9 25555 echo $? has to show number. Period. It will return a 1 when the pid does not exist, or you do not have permissions to kill the process. Something is completely wrong here. Please post EXACTLY what you type and what you get from those two commands. Otherwise this is not going to help you at all. |
