I'm not sure where to start looking for a solution on this. I use use Asterisk::Manager to reload Asterisk with a command like: $astman->sendcommand( Action => 'Command', Command => 'Reload' ); After a while, when I try to do a manual restart or 'stop now', asterisk will not exit. Any thoughts on where to look for a resolution?
