Find Working Directory Of Some Process In Linux

If i found that any particular process is causing load while monitoring your Linux server, i would kill the process to get rid of it. Now, i found it is always better to identify the root cause of problem. Find out from which directory this process is running.

Then i know that it is very easy to identify the working directory of the process, first of all find out the ID of the process for which you wish to determine the working directory. Run the following comamnd :


ps -ef | grep Process-Name

where replace Process-Name with the name of the process, just like if you want to find out the process ID for firefox then run the command as:

ps -ef | gep firefox

Once you have determined the process ID, run the following command to find out its working directory.

pwdx processID

That’s it, Enjoy!

One day when i open a document in Ms. Word 2003, I get the message “ This document could not be registered. It will not be possible to create links from other documents to this document .” After searching using google.com and open some website, i have one solution. It’s only one maybe two step that i have to do. I open my services panel and activated my DCOM Server Process Launcher . And, it works, the message no longer show again when i open my document using word 2003. That’s all. I hope it works to you too, if you have same problem. Nb: Open services panel, just open Run (Start–> Run) and type services.msc then Enter .
