Hi Friends,

I am facing a problem in my app, when user disconnects his session sometimes the app binary doesn't get aborted/killed. What can be the reason?

There is no background processing in the app..

Please help me ASAP.

Whats the "my app"
If you programmed that application, you should debug it.

Or its a commonly use Linux app?
What app is it?

What the app!

I presume you are running a GUI application? If so, then somewhere you have either consumed the exit/termination event, or if closing the application window also does not work, then you have either masked out that event, or have registered a callback to handle the close/exit/terminate events that is consuming them and continuing. If you wrote the application, then as b2bwild said, you debug it. If you didn't write it, since this is a linux system, the application is probably open source - get the source, build it for debugging, and fix it, posting the fixes back to the maintainer (I do this regularly). If it is proprietary, contact the developer and post a bug report. In the last case, your only recourse until it is fixed/patched is to kill the process from a command line.
