[REBOL] Creating Servers in Rebol on Linux Re:(2)

[christmn]

You may have to put it in a shell wrapper using nohup and putting it in background. The telnet session sends a HUP signal on disconnect and this is killing your server. You can also put the shell script in the boot startup directory with start/stop args then write your cgi to execute the script with a stop or start directive. ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, August 28, 2000 4:13 PM Subject: [REBOL] Creating Servers in Rebol on Linux Re: > How do I make the thing run resident so I can start or stop it via remote cgi? > > Right now, I must telnet in and run manually, if I close telnet client, > server shuts down. When you start your script, you should detach it from the console so that when you log out the process continues running: The following runs a REBOL script in the background (&) and redirects stdout and stderr to the null device (1> /dev/null 2> /dev/null) so no output remains directed at the console. %./fakenews.r & 1> /dev/null 2> /dev/null Try that and see if it solves your problem.
