| Sep 1, 2018 at 1:30 | comment | added | Sparkette | Also, ^C is SIGINT, not SIGTERM, and that would exit with a code of 130. | |

| Mar 30, 2011 at 18:36 | comment | added | Gilles 'SO- stop being evil' | You are! The return code 0 means a normal exit. If there was a SIGTERM, $? would be set to 143 (128 + signal number). | |
| Mar 30, 2011 at 7:05 | comment | added | michelemarcon | Very unlikely; however, all I know is the return code (0) which is the same that I get when I terminate the process with ^C (SIGTERM). Maybe I'm overlooking something? | |
| Mar 29, 2011 at 22:48 | comment | added | shellter | Posix documentation indicates SIGTERM is strictly a user level event. Is it possible someone else was able to kill your server program? | |
| Mar 29, 2011 at 8:14 | comment | added | michelemarcon | It is reading and writing to a serial line, and is responding to UDP and TCP requests. I have wrapped the execution on a bash script and therefore I know the exit code. | |
| Mar 28, 2011 at 17:57 | comment | added | Gilles 'SO- stop being evil' | I can't think of any case when the kernel or a standard tool would send SIGTERM to a random process. What can you tell us about what the program is doing and how it's started? How did you find out about the program's exit status? Can you reproduce the problem? Do you have logs you can check? | |
