Abstract: The present invention provides a software program execution device which can accept a processing request even during a setting change of a software program without interrupting the processing in-execution. An execution monitoring unit monitors, in processing units and based on an instruction of a software program control unit, the operation of a server application unit which executes a software program in a process, and notifies a software program control unit that the processing being executed in a first process is completed. Upon receiving the notification, the software program control unit stops and then restarts the first process, and the first process is restarted while reflecting the setting change recorded in a setting storage unit during the restart step.
