linux restart

[darkzonenet]

hi,

i am testing files in ubuntu os but when the server is restarting, it doesn't start from the begining. it stops after the saves. do you know how can i fix this?

[rocoder]

you work in terminal?
btw some server logs will be useful
you can check if the process ended with the command "top"

well as i saw the auto restart is working but the log console in ubunt ustops in the save info and as i understood it run again in back ground so i can not see it.

do you know how can i edit the startgameserver.sh to see the log console after the restart?

ummm, tail -F stdout.log

When the program halts itself and the script executes it again, you need to recall the tail command.

i have this in startgameserver.sh but as i wrote when the server is restarting no new log pops up and the old doesn't update.

is there any way to see the new log?

also is there any way to make startgameserver to run in a console and not in log ?

thanks

Let's take as example, you run the command tail -f stdout.log

Send a restart with the GM for example, you will see every action the the server make to shutdown the server before start it again. once the server save all data, it save the stdout.log to a new file called stdou-DATE.log and then when it start it will create a empy and new stdout.log so you need to cancel the tail you are running and execute the tail -f stdout.log command again to see how the server came up xD!

And that's it

Regards!

hi,

so i am closing the old log and then i press to console tail -f stdout.log ?

[macdonald12]

Yes, that's basically what 3 people told you now

If you use the "-F" option it will follow the new file.

i will try it. Btw is there any way to make it auto with a script?
