It looks like that perl script was written for linux, based on the args of the 'ps' command, it will not work as expected on OSX or FreeBSD.

Probably not Linux since WO was never qualified under Linux. But based on the date of this technical q&a (25 July 2001) and some of the WO launch arguments, I'd guess that this script was designed for WO 4 running under Solaris or HP-UX, both of which were supported under WO 4. Without being updated, it's inappropriate for WO 5 and Mac OS X or Windows.


It also appears that it will happily kill a lot more than just your application instances.

If you specify the WO 5 app process name, "java", you certainly might kill more than you intended :-)


My recommendation would be to proceed VERY carefully if you intend to use this script.

I'd take that a bit further and recommend that no one use this script without rewriting it for WO 5 and the operating system under which the WO apps are deployed. I.e., consider it an outline of how a WO (re)startup script could be written.


Aloha,
Art
