How to correctly daemonize a Rocket-based app? Summary I'm refactoring a Rust-based service/daemon to move away from gRPC and use a Rocket-based API instead. I'm also using the `daemonize` crate to turn the foreground process into a background process. The problem I've run into is that when I get the `rocket`-based service to successfully d... (more) |

For those who think the post is too long, here's a **TL;DR:** `HEAD` is a *pointer* to the most recent commit within the branch that's currently checked out (default `master`) whenever `git checkout <branch-or-sha1>` is used. The `HEAD` target can be altered, sometimes destructively, with other comma... (more) |

You *could* simply sign your email and send it without encrypting it. That would at least allow you to prove that you really did send the email.

A: PGP sign emails sent with git-send-email(1) > How can we use git-send-email(1) to sign patches (emails) with the gpg(1) keyring? The `git-send-email` command does not have any CLI options to perform cryptographic operations, so, to the best of my knowledge, you cannot really tell it to sign anything. What you can do is sign commits with ... (more) |

I don't think this is enough for a full-fledged answer, but I think adding debug `assert`s for testing, that get removed on release builds is a good approach. In general, clear documentation about what functions expect and leaving it to the caller should be fine. (more) |

How to properly manage PGP signing key storage, access, and usage for dev and automation? I work for an IoT company. We recently got secure boot to work for a customer-visible product. For secure boot to work, the images we generate must be signed. Obviously, we want customer-visible system releases to be signed. However, we need to make sure our signing keys are stored, accessed, and use... (more) |

A: Why content delivery networks often require a www. redirect? Other than their preferred configuration options, nothing really "requires" that a particular resource be behind a particular subdomain.

Did you check the Apache server logs to confirm whether the server is even receiving the request itself? What happens when you access it directly from your browser - even if it's a `GET` instead of a `POST`? Under Ubuntu, they'd be under `/var/log/apache2/{access | error}-log` by default. (more) |

@Estela: Well, the question title itself asking about whether it's "correct to run code inside a method whose object has been destroyed" first makes me wonder why someone would like to, e.g., get object A to destroy some other object B and then try to run object B's code after instance B no longer ex...

Legal does not mean moral. Just because you can does not mean you should.

There're some inaccuracies in the examples given. E.g., "Python vs CPython" is incorrect b/c Python is basically a language *specification*. CPython is *not* a "compiler" for Python; it's the reference runtime implementation - but it's still an interpreter, not a compiler. Another example includes Ir... (more) |

Why not `ANY-SCP` like the first or at least `ECHOSCU`? Why ECHOSC**P**? In the non-working one, things seem "ok" until packet 8, which causes the remote end to give you an `ABORT ECHOSCU --> ECHOSCP`. Do `ECHOSCP` and `ANY-SCP` have the same message sequence? Is this the right sequence for `ECHOSCP`... (more) |

@FractionalRadix: I took a brief look at your network code, but it was a bit difficult to follow - especially your 'byte' manipulations in `String`s, etc. I think if you spend some time cleaning up and simplifying the code, it might be easier to verify for correctness. Also, in the screenshots, the w... (more) |

@FractionalRadix Have you tried using the values from the working request in the failing request? How did you confirm that they're really arbitrary and not meaningful in some way? One of the first things I'd try is sending an *exact* copy of the working message/packet thru the app just to rule that o... (more) |

I'm not familiar with DICOM, but I have a few questions: Your app is *not* sending the exact same bytes as the successful request (e.g. `VR value = 0001` that works vs your app's `VR value = 0xfeca`). What's the significance of the different bytes? Why are they even different if you're (apparently) ... (more) |

A: Why is this symlink() call returning successfully while apparently failing to create the sym-link? Summary I've fixed the issue and what follows is the best explanation I have so far. What I had described in the OP were some of the observations, but I'll be including more detail so that it's (hopefully) easy to follow. This includes `fork`s, COWs, and dead children. Additional Observations ... (more) |

@MartinBonner Also, if I comment out the `remove_file` line, the dangling symlink can be seen in the file system after program execution has ended, suggesting that the `panic!` is from the expected 2nd `drop`, but caused by an unexpected 1st `drop` for some reason. (There're more weird observations, ... (more) |

@MartinBonner: BTW, I found the double-`drop` thing when the debugger unexpectedly hit the same breakpoint twice in the `drop` implementation, and also with this line, which ended up showing 2 files in the directory, instead of 1: `std::process::Command::new("mktemp").arg("drop.XXXXXXXX").output().ex...

@MartinBonner: The behavior is the same if I use `std::process::Command::new("ln").args(vec!["-s", slave_path.as_str(), symlink_path]).output().expect("ln command failed");` instead of `symlink`. The symlink is getting destroyed quickly during execution of the process -and we're talking about a progr... (more) |

| Comment | Post #279762 |
@MartinBonner: I'm following a few different leads, but to try and quickly answer your questions: I already had a separate test program and it works normally. The `.exists` check works immediately after the `symlink` call and printing directory contents from within the program shows the link there. S... (more) |

| Comment | Post #279762 |
I also tried adding this line, as a test replacing the `symlink` function call, but the observed result was the same as what's already documented in the update:
```rust
std::process::Command::new("ln").args(vec!["-s", slave_path.as_str(), symlink_path]).output().expect("ln command failed");
