Hello Tara, How are you running the scripts, what do you use in the "Command line" field to start them? Do you have multiple external tools configured in Oxygen to run the scripts and are you running several (different) external tools at the same time? Or are you referring to the same external tool being run multiple times? Note that you cannot start an external tool a second time while it's already running. The RUN icon (blue triangle) changes to STOP (red square). So, if you press the button of the external tool again, Oxygen will attempt to stop the running process. Another aspect I must mention is that if your script spawns other processes, Oxygen will not stop those (it doesn't kill the process tree), just the process it knows it started. If all else fails, you can use the Task Manager (or Activity Monitor on OS X) to kill the process or even the entire process tree.

I use bash scripts to run validation tests and build artifacts (I have an external tool called "build" that simply starts the bash script that has focus in the editor). I have noticed that if I start a script when another is running, there will be a failure of the first script, but then I am unable to successfully start any other script. It will return with error code 0, but not actually do anything.

Is there a clean way to kill a script that is started in this fashion?
