To: current@FreeBSD.org Date: Sun, 5 Mar 1995 11:02:20 +0200 (SAT) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL23] Content-Type: text Content-Length: 679 Sender: current-owner@FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hi, I am running FreeBSD-current with a kernel of this morning, if this is relevant. I have compiled a program, copied it with cp to another directory and executed it from there. Then I changed the source, compiled it again and when I tried to copy it, I got the "cp: /users/jhay/bin/u2d: Text file busy" message. But the program is not running anymore. I have waited a few minutes, thinking that there is some cache that have to timeout, but it did not help. Now it isn't the end of the world for me, I can just delete the file before I copy the new one or use install. I would just like to know if this is expected behaviour or not? -- John Hay -- jhay@mikom.csir.co.za
