Re: Bug or feature ?

[Jan-Henrik Haukeland]

As you can see from the log, the start program is executed but fails,
which you can see from the second last line "Could not execute
/path/game/kill". You should check out the /path/game/kill program and
investigate why it fails to stop the server. The FAQ has a solution
for debugging with strace.
