Thread: Finding who (what) killed my process.

i have rather simple script restarts process everytime exits, because process designed exit , restart using shell script.

code:

#!/bin/bash  while true           echo "starting."          ./program params  done

typically, when crashes, exits this:

code:

terminate called after throwing instance of 'exception'  ./program.sh: line 6: 16453 aborted                 ./program params

which expected, program throwing exception , script restarts it. now, managed catch weird...

code:

// program generating output normal, nothing weird.  ./program.sh: line 6: 16445 killed                  ./program params

killed? how? why? specific, bash telling me program executed program.sh being killed. know kernel kill program being memory intensive, simple 200kb program not memory intensive in way, , restarts every ~hour eliminate possible memleaks.

i've tried looking through log files should contain info, nothings there.

code:

gary@snuggles:/var/log$ sudo grep 16445 *  [sudo] password gary:   gary@snuggles:/var/log$

no 1 else has access pc, either directly or remotely. ideas on how track down why/how killed?

bump!
