Aihe: TCPSocket hangs after ctrl-c

Hi there,

I'm new on the list and have tried google for help first, with no luck.

I'm writing a small tcpserver and when I debug it and make changes I
have to stop the server and I get a hanging socket

$ netstat -atn
<SNIP>
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:10000 127.0.0.1:44420
TIME_WAIT
</SNIP>

It hangs for apx. 30 secunds, not that I can't wait, but... when making
smalle incremeltal changes all the time in the debugging process it
becomes very tedious.

So, is there any way to send a proper kill signal to a runing ruby
script that will run an at_exit() function or the like so it'll shut
down cleanly?

You could try Signal#trap. Or kill -9 :slight_smile: What are you doing, though?
Are you trying to kill the process or restart it? In the latter case,
you may want to make sure that you have REUSEADDR turned on.
