Question Multiple instance of same process

SmilieHi Everyone,

I am using solaris 5.10.

I have a java process running in server mode in unix.

The problem is that it automatically forks i.e creates a child process.

I mean suddenly two instances of that process start running , in which the process-id of first instance is the parent process-id of second.

Can anyone tell me what is the cause of this problem.
I dont want the new child process.


Can anyone please tell me the reason and solution to stop this.



Thanks in advance.

setpgid(3)						     Library Functions Manual							setpgid(3)

Name
       setpgid - set process group (POSIX)

Syntax
       #include <sys/types.h>
       int
       setpgid(pid, pgrp)
       pid_t pid, pgrp;

Description
       The  function is used to either join an existing process group or create a new process group within the session of the calling process (see
       Upon successful completion, the process group ID of the process that has a process ID which matches pid is set to pgrp.	If  pid  is  zero,
       then the call applies to the current process. In addition, if pgrp is zero, the process ID of the indicated process is used.

       This function is available only in the POSIX environment.

Return Values
       The  function  returns 0 when the operation is successful.  If the request fails, -1 is returned and the global variable indicates the rea-
       son.

Diagnostics
       The function fails and the process group is not altered if one of the following occurs:

       [EACCES]       The value of the pid argument matches the process ID of a child process of the calling process and  the  child  process  has
		      successfully executed an function.

       [EINVAL]       The value of the pgrp argument is less than zero or is not a supported value.

       [EPERM]	      The process indicated by the pid argument is a session leader.

		      The  value of the pid argument matches the process ID of a child process of the calling process and the child process is not
		      in the same session as the calling process.

		      The value of the pgrp argument does not match the process ID of the process indicated by the pid argument and  there  is	no
		      process with a process group ID that matches the value of the pgrp argument in the same session as the calling process.

       [ESRCH]	      The  value  of  the  pid	argument  does	not  match the process ID of the calling process of a child process of the calling
		      process.
