| Feb 29, 2012 at 5:16 | comment | added | phemmer | using pkill is a lot simpler. pkill uses the exact same matching criteria as pgrep, so you can do this in 1 command instead of 2 (and having to rely on the output of one). | |
| Feb 29, 2012 at 4:31 | comment | added | mills013 | If you give pgrep the '-f' flag, it will match the pattern against the entire command-line. So, in this case kill pgrep -f selenium should work | |

| Feb 29, 2012 at 4:21 | comment | added | Eric | I love the elegance of this, but the process looks like this: "root 26401 11997 2 23:20 pts/1 00:00:00 java -jar /home/lm/cron/selenium-server-standalone-2.19.0.jar" so I just changed it to pgrep java and it works :-) thanks! | |
