bug#2308: 23.0.90; Don't delete /tmp/emacs$ID/server on kill-emacs

[Damien Cassou]

Hi,

when I kill emacs daemon with M-x kill-emacs, it does not delete the
generated file /tmp/emacs$USERID/server, preventing a new emacs daemon
from running correctly.

In GNU Emacs 23.0.90.1 (i486-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.14.4)

I can't reproduce this bug.  Please provide a precise recipe for it,
starting with `emacs -Q --daemon'.

I can't reproduce the bug either with -Q. Here is the recipe without:

$ rm /tmp/emacs1000/server
$ /usr/bin/emacs-snapshot --daemon
...
Starting Emacs daemon.
$ /usr/bin/emacsclient -c -e "(kill-emacs)"
[answer yes to the question]
$ ls /tmp/emacs1000/server
/tmp/emacs1000/server=

I also tried with --no-init-file and could not reproduce the bug
either. But with --no-site-file I was able to reproduce it.

Does it mean there is a problem with my configuration files? How can I find it?

Try commenting out half of your configuration file(s), and see which
half causes the problem.  By repeating this bisection procedure, you
should be able to pinpoint the problematic part quite quickly.

Were you able to reproduce this problem starting from emacs -Q? Does
still happen with newer releases?

I don't have this problem anymore with recent versions of Emacs.

OK, I'm closing this bug then.

Thanks,
