nohup process hangs on ssh session

[Gamaliel]

Hi there,

I start a ssh session with a batch file
ssh user@server file.bat The file includes a start of process like nohup start_process & and then it tries to finish the session with "exit" but at this point the program hangs, what can I do?

Shalom Joaquin,

put set -x in the script right after the shell is set and get some diagnostics.

Also you can do a ssh -vvv to get connection diagnostics.

Hi,

Start SSH server in debug mode and look what happens there.

Faced a similar problem sometime ago...worked around it by NOT running it in the background i.e. removing nohup from the command.

Thank you all, in fact i saw a similar problem at forum, so using nohup star_process >/dev/null >&1 & solves my problem.

Thks!
