> When a container is killed by its AM we get a similar error message like this:

> In container-executor.c the fork point is right after the "Creating script paths..." part, though in the Stdout log we can clearly see it has been written there twice. After consulting with [~pbacsko] it seems like there's a missing flush in container-executor.c before the fork and that causes the duplication.
> I suggest to add a flush there so that it won't be duplicated: it's a bit misleading that the child process writes out "Getting exit code file" and "Creating script paths" even though it is clearly not doing that.
> A more appealing solution could be to revisit the fprintf-fflush pairs in the code and change them to a single call, so that the fflush calls would not be forgotten accidentally. (It can cause problems in every place where it's used).
> Note: this issue probably affects every occasion of fork(), not just the one from {{launch_container_as_user}} in {{main.c}}.
