Two options:<div><ol><li>(as Itamar notes) use spawnProcess for all your process spawning needs</li><li>reactor.run(installSignalHandlers = False) and do your own signal handling</li></ol><div>For option #2, you'll almost certainly want to install SIGTERM and SIGINT handlers which call reactor.stop().</div>

<br>
I have a twisted service that needs to fork child processes to do tasks, after<br>
which they will exit. I wrote a signal handler for SIGCHLD but it didn't seem<br>
to be called. I read something about twisted installing its own signal<br>
handlers that may conflict. Is this true?<br>
<br>
How would you recommend handling a SIGCHLD in twisted?<br>
<br>
Many thanks,<br>
Mike<br>
