hi, i'm a new user of ROR, and i find some probleme to manipulate threads. so, i have two ROR app runing in m computer,the first is for exemple Diaspora* and the second the app that im writing to administrate Diaspora server. so i want from the adminstration panel, start/stop Diaspora server. i wrote this:
class AdministrationController < ApplicationController
def index
render :layout => 'test' end
def statuts
io = IO.popen("lsof -i :1234 | awk '{print $2}'") output = io.read io.close
if output == '' flash[:notice] = 'server down' else flash[:notice] = 'server up ' end redirect_to :action => :index
end
def start_serv @test= Thread.new do io = IO.popen("cd /home/delmed/diaspora/ && ./script/server") @output = io.read io.close end sleep 5 self.statuts flash[:notice] = 'server up ' end
def kill_serv io = IO.popen("netstat -tanp | grep 1234 | awk '{print $7}'") @output = io.read io.close
io = IO.popen("kill -9 #{@output[0..3]}") output = io.read io.close
io = IO.popen("netstat -tanp | grep 8080 | awk '{print $7}'") @output = io.read io.close
io = IO.popen("kill -9 #{@output[0..3]}") output = io.read io.close self.statuts end
end
like you see, the start_serv method create a thread to run the diaspora server. but in the kill_serv (stop diaspora server) i cant recover this thread to kill or stop. what can i do please !!?
