Duplicate Procceses

[D3ltaa]

When I try to restart the process using pm2 restart or pm2 reload, it ends up creating duplicate processes. Even if I stop them, they continue running somewhere, and I have to restart the entire server.

Anyone has an idea on that?

Hi @D3ltaa, Could you please share some more details? I have tried reproducing at my end, it seems to be working fine for me.

Steps that I followed to reproduce:

1. Created a simple node.js app.
2. Installed pm2 globally.
3. Start the node.js app using pm2.
4. Restarted the process using both pm2 restart <pid> or pm2 reload <pid>

Outcome: Using pm2 list, I could see only processing running.

Used versions:
node.js: 16.15.1
pm2: 5.4.3

Thanks!

I see. Let me try re-producing that again.
