I have a subprocess which I open, which calls other processes.
I use os.killpg(os.getpgid(subOut.pid), signal.SIGTERM) to kill the entire group, but this kills the python script as well. Even when I call a python script with os.killpg from a second python script, this kills the second script as well. Is there a way to make os.killpg not stop the script?
Another solution would be to individually kill every child 1process. However, even using
p = psutil.Process(subOut.pid)
child_pid = p.children(recursive=True)
