I have a PHP script that is running and I sometimes just want to restart apache and get rid of all running PHP scripts.
However, I have noticed after my restart, a PHP script will continue running. Why is this? Is there an option to make sure Apache does a proper restart? Or is the ignore_user_abort function causing this issue?
Thanks all for any help
It depends on how you’re restarting httpd. A “soft restart” (e.g.
killall -HUP httpd) allows currently-running httpd children to complete the request before dying. This eliminates occurrences of the browser just “dying” during a request, but it does mean that currently-running PHP scripts (since they run in the httpd child) will continue to run.
