[10:22] <xerxas> Hi all !
[10:23] <xerxas> I want to have a service that start N instance of another service , but I want to be able to restart each instance individually. It kind of works, but once I restart a single service individually, restart the-global-service doesn't work anymore 
[13:31] <snappy> I have this problem where i start a daemonized python program which double forks. I think upstart has got some incorrect PID tracking.
[13:31] <snappy> when i try to start/stop the service, it just freezes
[13:34] <snappy> i don't get any logging for the service in /var/log/upstart -- not sure how to debug this to be honest
[13:34] <snappy> when i start the daemon manually by running the commands
[13:35] <snappy> it works without a hitch
[21:31] <BLZbubba> what does upstart do with zombie processes?  I have a bunch of dead java processes owned by init.  init is supposed to clean them up nicely.  I'm using version 1.12.1-0ubuntu4.2 (default in ubuntu 14.04)
