Subject: Let write_pid_file() terminate if the pid file can't be opened
X-Git-Tag: v_3_0_27~124
X-Git-Url: http://www.privoxy.org/gitweb/misc.html?a=commitdiff_plain;h=40afc653330e1f37e2f5257ddc16cb620c88a3e9;p=privoxy.git

Let write_pid_file() terminate if the pid file can't be opened

Logging the issue at info level is unlikely to help.
