Server Monitor

[uGamers]

I set up monitor crontab.
I run the server with this command ./csserver restart
I even tried ./csserver start <Still nothing<

I get this error �[K[�[0;36m INFO �[0;39m] Monitoring DMM: No lock file found: Monitor disabled
To enable monitor run /home/cs16/counterstrikeservers/DMM/csserver start

I have a lock file next to the csserver that it makes when the server is started.

The info in the csserver is as followed.

Directories

rootdir="$(cd "$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}" )" && pwd )"
selfname="$0"
lockselfname=$(echo ".${servicename}.lock")
filesdir="${rootdir}/serverfiles"
systemdir="${filesdir}/cstrike"
executabledir="${filesdir}"
executable="./hlds_run"
servercfgdir="${systemdir}"
servercfg="server.cfg"
servercfgfullpath="${servercfgdir}/${servercfg}"
defaultcfg="${servercfgdir}/server.cfg"
backupdir="backups"
steamclient="${rootdir}/steamcmd/linux32/steamclient.so"

Is there something im doing wrong or is this a bug?

Thanks Mark

Be sure your user has write access to that folder as a check

[uGamers]

Yes they do.

[Scarsz]

Mind doing a new install (or just a different directory) and pasting in the install log?

[uGamers]

Where will the install log be?

[Scarsz]

./csserver install | tee install.log

something is stopping the lock file being created for some reason. I think we might need to add something on server start to check the lock file does exist and if not create a warning. Might be able to even identify some reasons why its not working e.g permissions etc.

The lock file is being created but when i crash the server on purpose it does not run the the crontab job i have set.

crontab -e
*/5 * * * * /home/cs16/counterstrikeservers/random/csserver monitor > /dev/null 2>&1

Also your
fn_parms(){
parms="-game cstrike -strictportbind -ip ${ip} -port ${port} +clientport ${clientport} +map ${defaultmap} -maxplayers ${maxplayers}"
}

should be?
fn_parms(){
parms="-game cstrike -strictportbind +ip ${ip} -port ${port} +clientport ${clientport} +map ${defaultmap} -maxplayers ${maxplayers}"
}

not -ip but +ip?

My Guess is that Monitor is broke via crontab or just dont work at all idk ive tried everything i could think of for 3 days still nothing.

[UltimateByte]

Did you try a machine reboot after setting the crontab ?
Also, check your server logfiles to see if the crontab actyally sends a monitor command to the script. It's located in your root script folder into log/script. You should see monitor occurrences.
