Kill issue

Closed this issue · 2 comments

Hey there,

I am currently facing an issue with kill. I try to run the shell to import the data. I thought there were some issues and the code exits. But there seems one of the time it keeps running. I ran ps to exam the processes, which is clear. But when I ran ps -a, there are many python and psql and sh running. If I want to kill them and restart my life, what might be an appropriate approach? I tried something brutal like pkill psql or ps aux | grep your_command_name | awk '{print $2}' | xargs kill -9, but it all says operation not permitted. So what could be a proper way to stop that? At the moment, I might just wait it to finish, but I wonder how could I simply just do a small test and restart it?

When I run ps -a, I got this

  PID TTY          TIME CMD
13008 ?        00:00:00 sh
13009 ?        00:00:00 pager
24228 pts/14   00:00:00 vim
40947 ?        12:43:48 python
48453 pts/5    00:00:00 sh
48454 pts/5    00:00:00 pager
60214 pts/1    00:00:00 sh
60215 pts/1    00:00:00 pager
75163 pts/5    00:00:00 ps

The strange thing is that there is no way for me to kill the python. And the running time seems strange to me. It only advances for a few seconds or minutes when in real life it passes half an hour. Is this okay?

Because right now when I run my docker ps -a command, there is still a issue with the normalized database

I've deleted the folders as requested over email. If this is still a problem, I'll need to take a look in person.
