En?I think you are a little poor at daemon programming.
See this example coming from Lincold Stein's book:
-----------------
daemon();
do something...
sub daemon
{
my $child = fork();
die "can't fork" unless defined $child;
exit 0 if $child;
setsid();
open (STDIN, "</dev/null");
open (STDOUT, ">/dev/null");
open (STDERR,">&STDOUT");
chdir $rundir;
umask(022);
$ENV{PATH}='/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin';
return $$;
}
--------------------
Do you still believe you can see the error output on screen?
