here is my startup config that works just fine. If i find the server not responding I just login and kill -9 the pid
#!/bin/bash
while true
do
/home/user/callofduty/cod_lnxded +exec ded.cfg +sets gamestartup \"`date +"%m-%d-%Y %T"`\"
echo "server crashed on `date`" > last_crash.txt
done

Not sure if I can help you there man. I don't know a ton about linux. Yet there is a bunch of peeps here that do. I will tell you in advance what they will need. Do a top command or something that shows all the processes running. Too many variables can contribute to stuff like that - hanging, crashing, etc. More details you can give them the better. What my script does is run the program in the background and gives it the nohup command and also writes to a logfile. This keeps the process from quittin'. It works very well. I'm very proud of myself haha. Many hours of research and search engines finding the pieces I needed to make it work. As far as the screen command goes I don't know enough about that to help you. But from what I have learned it keeps it running when you close the shell or logoff the system. Anyone can correct me if I'm wrong. Anyways, that's my input.

That sounds wonderful. I have been running the server and never had crash yet it just hangs with either 100% cpu and none can connect. That is what I am trying to sort out getting restarted?
Red Hat 8.0 install on the OS. I have not tried the latest screen commands does that change the way the dedicated server runs?

Hey everyone. It took me 5 hours this weekend to write custom startup, restart, and shutdown scripts for the medal of honor linux server - because the server I'm hosted on doesn't have the screen command and I didn't want to have to install a ton of stuff to make it work. I'm also in the process of writing scripts to turn mods on and off very easily and also a script that emails me when the server goes down or a script that restarts the server, not sure yet. But, I'm pretty sure these scripts will work for CoD also. I copywrited or licensed them whatever you want to call it with the GNU license so they're free but I still get credit for writing them, so if you want to take a look at them let me know and I'll put them somewhere where you can download them, that way you get a copy of the license. Reason: It took me a long time to do this and I doubt anyone has scripts like these. They can be run from a cron also.
Peace out,

I have mine in a forever loop with a 5 second delay. If it crashes, which is rare, it the quit command is issued then it pauses for 5 seconds and restarts the server. The script also manages the log files and other cleanup tasks.

Okay thanks for all the feedback.
Next question is I used to have to set a cron job or something to restart the server when it hangs or crashes.
Anyone using any daemon tools or supervisor tools on CoD that work.
