Description Deepu K S 2017-03-04 09:59:05 UTC
Description of problem:
Use of uninitialized value in kill at File/Pid.pm line 124. 

The program crashes if you call $pidfile->running when the pid file does not exist. There is a patch from CPAN below which seems to fix the bug.


This is a CPAN bug report with an attached patch which seems to be working:
