Hi, I am trying to write a python cgi script, that invokes another process and exists. Using the subprocess documentation on NO_WAIT, I am not having much success:
pid = os.spawnlp(os.P_NOWAIT, "/bin/mycmd", "mycmd", "myarg") ==> pid = Popen(["/bin/mycmd", "myarg"]).pid The script seems to wait for the new process to exit before returning to the user. I tried doing the double-fork approach discussed here: http://code.activestate.com/recipes/66012/ I am not having much luck. Any ideas on how to accomplish this appreciated. thanks, Ravi.
