restart program when it crashes / closes by self
Hi i am wanting to restart a program which i need to have it run 24/7 the app is minergate.
The issue I am having is that the app / program feezes and shuts down - this is a known issue with the 8.1 version.
However until 8.2 comes out I have no other option but to bite my lips and bear it. I am wondering is there away to listen for the program, and if it crashes to restart the app and continue the ETH mining?
You can run the program as a daemon using the daemon
command, which runs the program in the background, and will automatically restart it if it dies (using the --respawn
option) :
daemon --name="yourservicename" --respawn --output=yourlog.txt yourprogram
To stop the daemon:
daemon --name="yourservicename" --stop
To install daemon:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install daemon
