If you are talking about the pid number 28806 that pid is the supervisor's pid. Which is not exit. Just the syslog-ng itself. So it is possible to receive a lot of this message with the same pid. I was writing about the pid of syslog-ng, not supervising syslog-ng!
root 26918 1 0 Dec11 ? 00:00:00 supervising syslog-ng root 26919 26918 0 Dec11 ? 00:05:00 /usr/sbin/syslog-ng However, messages in syslong-ng.log report very different pids on crash: supervise/syslog-ng[24337]: Daemon exited gracefully yesterday: supervise/syslog-ng[31237]: Daemon exited gracefully It is my error-script related thing, because this happens when some other error happens too. Its strange with that script. The first instance appears to be started along with syslog-ng: root 26920 26919 0 Dec11 ? 00:00:00 /bin/bash /opt/scripts-system/crashmail But there are another two instances, which somehow origin from the first... root 24423 26920 0 12:30 ? 00:00:00 /bin/bash /opt/scripts-system/crashmail root 24427 24423 0 12:30 ? 00:00:00 /bin/bash /opt/scripts-system/crashmail Lets just say, I don't understand this. Is it fifo or sendmail usage to blame, no idea this far.
