<div>It appears that when I close all dets files there is a lingering dets process left because if I run:</div>
<div> dets_server:stop().</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Then the shell doesn't report "** exception exit: shutdown"<br/>
</div>
<div>
<div>Is that normal? Should I be calling dets_server:stop() from my code once I close dets files? None of the dets example use cases show that.</div>

<div>I'm using erlang 18.0, on ubuntu 14. It was also happening with 17.5, I'm running my own application which has been working fine for months. This issue showed up after I added code to open dets files, I do close all the dets files before I quit my application.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I ran the commands you suggested below but interestingly there is no more info with it, matches your lines up untill the point it's supose to print what went wrong but then nothing...., so frustrating:</div>

4> dbg:tracer().<br/>
{ok,<0.5341.0>}<br/>
5> dbg:p(whereis(init), [s,r]).<br/>
{ok,[{matched,nonode@nohost,1}]}<br/>
6> q().<br/>
(<0.0.0>) << {stop,stop}<br/>
(<0.0.0>) <0.7.0> ! {'EXIT',<0.2.0>,shutdown}<br/>
ok<br/>

<div>Which version of erlang are you using? What OS? Trying it on OS X, the node dies quietly. Not entirely sure why you are seeing the "exception exit" message. Did you have any processes running before you invoked q()? Basically the node shutdown procedure is being invoked, and all your processes get killed.</div>

<br/>
does anyone have any pointers on how to debug an exception exit in shell?<br/>
<br/>
When I type q(). into the shell I get this:<br/>

3> q().<br/>
ok<br/>
** exception exit: shutdown<br/>

The problem is I don't know where to look since the exception is so terse. Does anyone have any pointers?<br/>
