I was trying to kill a process from the output of the ps -aef | grep <processname>
The following is the output from the command which is assigned to variable $result
my $result =
'[root@genstor ~]# ps -aef | grep radiusd
root 30543 1 0 Jul18 ? 00:00:00 radiusd -d /usr/local/etc/raddb/
root 30554 1 0 Jul18 ? 00:00:00 radiusd -d /usr/local/etc/raddb_2/
root 31059 30986 0 00:06 pts/2 00:00:00
[root@genstor ~]#
';
I was trying to kill the process with id 30554 which is under /usr/local/etc/raddb_2/
When I write a small individual script and try to fetch the PID ( 30554) it works well and good, but when I use the same in my framework
in both the ways I am trying to split the $result variable using split function like follows
my @arr = split /\s+/,$result;
When I print @arr while using the framework I am seeing the value as 5 ( which I believe is the size of the array given the no of new lines )
Can anyone help me in this ?
