[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk agi interface leaves zombie processes?
Hi- Asterisk (CVS 7/30/03) seems to leave my AGI processes (written in Perl) as "zombies", even though they exit normally with exit(0). I am running Red Hat 9. I tried the same AGI etc with an older CVS (7/1/03) and this does not happen. I think a zombie process is a process that doesn't release some resource (shared memory, etc), so I'm worried about this since I call my AGI once per incoming call. Has anyone else experienced this? Thanks Scott Scott M. Stingel

This is a known problem. I have the same situation with RH9 as you do. I don't know if the problem has been added to the new bug tracking system. We should check. My workaround is to run the AGI scripts on a RH7 box and forward calls using IAX.
