<P>It seems that it is no more possible to write data into a pipe/fifo from Erlang with R9C-1 on Linux (from memory, I believe that it worked previously). </P>
<P>We get an error with badsig.</P>
<P>For instance, using a pipe/fifo /var/ipc/pipeMOM already created by another process (there is a running external process, not erlang related, which reads data from this pipe, permissions are ok, other non related processes can write to this pipe in C)</P>
<P> </P>
<P>4> Port=open_port('/var/ipc/pipeMOM',[eof,out]).</P>
<P>#Port<0.74></P>
<P>5> erlang:send_nosuspend(Port,test).</P>
<P>=ERROR REPORT==== 19-Jul-2004::14:15:57 ===</P>
<P>Error in process <0.32.0> with exit value: {badsig,[{erlang,send,[#Port<0.74>,test,[nosuspend]]},{erlang,send_nosuspend,3},{erl_eval,do_apply,5},{shell,eval_loop,2}]}</P>
<P>** exited: {badsig,[{erlang,send,[#Port<0.74>,test,[nosuspend]]},</P>
<P>{erlang,send_nosuspend,3},</P>

<P>{shell,eval_loop,2}]} **</P>
<P>Are we supposed to send data to pipes in a different manner ?,<BR>did I make a mistake ?<BR>Is there a solution ?</P>
<P>Thanks for your help</P></FONT></DIV></DIV></DIV></div><br clear=all><hr>Add photos to your e-mail with <a href="http://g.msn.com/8HMBEN/2746??PS=47575">MSN 8.</a> Get 2 months FREE*.</html>
