Automatic Restart by AI Agent and zombie processes
I am a beginner. I use Linux Mint. I understand that the Wasp server restarts with every change. I also know about the wasp clean command, but I’ve been running into a problem: when AI agents reboot the server, it seems to leave zombie processes alive, and the server never properly reboots—it hangs with an error.
What is the fix? It requires logging out and logging back in. In short, this removes all zombie processes. However, this is not a practical solution.
I have two dangerous commands that can stop the Wasp servers because Ctrl-C is disabled and won't stop the server manually:
1) pkill -f wasp || pkill -f node // Not recommended
2) lsof -i:3001 -t | xargs -r kill -9 // Not recommended
I need a manual way to reboot the server:
1) Do you have a proper way to manually reboot the Wasp server?
2) Is it possible to enable Ctrl-C for development?
3) Is there a way to make wasp start work again without logging out of my Linux?
No, I don’t have any errors right now. I’m just sharing my experience and the problems I’m facing.
Pls help me solve this problem because it has become a huge problem. (as of Oct 2025. )
