JimmyTheSaint Posted November 16, 2013 Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 You can get the pid using top or from bin/.sync/sync.pid and kill that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krychek Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 And how graceful is it to stop btsync by killing it? Won't it damage it in some way? Why doesn't it have a stop argument? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold Feit Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 As long as you send the proper signal it will stop gracefully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krychek Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 So what is the proper signal? Is "killall btsync" proper? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold Feit Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 killall btsync will send the proper signal to btsync as long as you don't use additional paramaters. Signal 15 (sigterm) is the proper signal to send and will trigger a graceful shutdown. Signal 9 (sigkill) will do a non-graceful shutdown of the application.
