Re: [webmin-l] Kill (Stop) custom command function

Thanks

 

This may work. I have the new window open.  My stop.cgi script is a perl
script that will open the pid file, read the pid, and kill the process.

How can I pass the process file name down to my stop.cgi perl script?

I think the best solution would be for your button to open a new window
that calls stop.cgi , something like :

 print ui_button("Stop", undef, 0, "onClick='window.open(\"stop.cgi\",
\"stop\")'");

	We have a custom command that is displays lots of output to the
screen. This is good.

	I added a "STOP EXECUTION" button to the top of the form so that
the user could stop (kill) the command if need be.

	I used the ui_buttons_row to create the button

	The pid of the process is stored in a known file, so I can get
that

	What I want to happen is after the STOP EXECUTION button is hit,
continue to see the output on the screen.  The custom command will catch
the signal and kill the process and display output accordingly.  This is
the output I need to have displayed on the screen.

	When I created a stop.cgi behind the button, it took me away
from the output.

	Is there any way to do this ??

	Thanks
