[bf1942] restart script

[David Stevens]

Oddly enough, not a lot of people have asked for it.

Mine is 2 parts

#########################servermonitor#########################
#! /bin/sh

#full path to the start script for the process you want to monitor
exec=/home/stoop/bf2/start.sh

#process name
procName=bin/bf2

#setting the column boundries for cutting the pid from ps
char1=1
char2=6

#interval the script checks to see if the process is still running
interval=10

while :
do
pid=$(ps ax |grep $procName |cut -c$char1-$char2)
echo $pid
if pid=null
then
date >> restartlog
echo $procName has stopped!!!! Starting $procName!!!! >> restartlog
echo " "
echo " "

$exec
fi

sleep $interval
done
#####################################################


######################startit.sh#######################
screen -dmS easucks /home/stoop/bf2/servermonitor
####################################################

To attach to the screen, do screen -r

If you run more than one server, you need to change the screen name for
each.. (in this case, screenname is easucks)

Thanks to Rene Belloq for his help / building of this.
