My end goal is to be able to write a daemon that will completely detach from the controlling terminal. On another note, PHP 5.0.5 (cli) is able to close STDIN and STDOUT, but not STDERR according to lsof. Reproduce code: --------------- #!/usr/local/bin/php -q <?php fclose(STDIN); fclose(STDOUT); fclose(STDERR); for (;;) { sleep(10); } ?> Expected result: ---------------- When running lsof to see what files a process has open, I would expect all three of the standard IO streams (0, 1, 2) to be missing from the output. Actual result: -------------- When running the above script and then running lsof on the process, you can see that FD 1 and 2 are open (0 was closed properly): COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE NODE NAME <snip> det.php 3465 vince 1u CHR 136,0 2 /dev/pts/0 det.php 3465 vince 2u CHR 136,0 2 /dev/pts/0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=38199&edit=1
