[wplug-web] race condition in openacs?

[James O'Kane]

When we restarted penguin, 8081 didn't restart. I tracked it down to the 
wrong/bad pid in /var/www/www.wplug.org-tng/log/nspid.wplug

[root at penguin log]# cat nspid.wplug.bak 
1097
[root at penguin log]# ps 1097
  PID TTY      STAT   TIME COMMAND
 1097 tty3     S      0:00 /sbin/mingetty tty3

I'm guessing that the 1097 is from before the reboot. Is there something 
that makes openacs remove that pid file properly? Are we missing a step 
for proper shutdown of the server? Isn't there a way to tell what type of 
process a pid refers to?
