Re: [cobalt-developers] infinite loop

["Kevin D" <kdlists@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You should be able to kill any process that you feel like. I think by MySQL
infinite loop you mean a perl script that accesses mysql and is running in
an infinite loop, right? If so, DONT kill the MySQL process - kill only the
perl process (because MySQL isn't in an infinite loop, only the perl
program). This may or may not damage the database that the perl script is
connecting to, depending on what the perl script is doing, but there really
is no way around that risk.
