Hello, Adding to "subject: temp not deleted with webmin", it seems that the reason the "temp" file is not deleted form webmin, is due to the fact that in webmin, the process is being executed using " /usr/local/abc/execute -r > /dev/null 2>&1 < /dev/null &" Since this command does not print to browser, I am assuming that the deletion of the temp file is not being executed at the end. It works in telnet with limited privlidges and on the machine shell, so the only conclusion I can up with it that, webmin is not executing the end of the program, because it is not printing to browser.

After furture testing and using the following print to browser command,
open(OUTPUT, "/usr/local/execute/fire 2>&1 |");
while(<OUTPUT>) {
print;
}
close(OUTPUT);
I noticed that "deleting temp file..." appears, but when I check no temp
file is deleted. I am in a daze... I use shell the temp file is deleted,
but when using Webmin, the file is not affected.
==== observations ====
1.) I am using webmin as root - so privledges should not be the problem
2.) program being executed by webmin module is a C++ program
3.) C++ program calls on a "shell SED file"
4.) Using Shell (root) or Telnet (limited privlidges) everything works well
5.) Using Webmin, C++ program is excecuted and ends properly, but "temp"
file not deleted
6.) I am going crazy...
Thanks,
Diego

This isn't so much a fix as a bandaid, but if the temp file is supposed to
be removed right at the end of the program, why not do this:
open(OUTPUT, "/usr/local/execute/fire 2>&1 |");
while(<OUTPUT>) {
print;
}
close(OUTPUT);
unlink $tempfile;
$tempfile is of course a string containing the absolute path to your
tempfile. Doesn't explain the behavior, but it temporarily fixes the
problem.

wow,
I feel like a moron, i found the problem, I was not placing the absolute
path, thinking webmin would execute from the same folder as the C++ program.
problem: /temp/yuck
fix: /usr/local/application/temp/yuck
Thank you,
Diego
