Does it/can it verify that the process has been killed before restarting it? What I see happen from time to time is that the process hangs, Serverdoc thinks it is dead and tries to restart it without first terminating the existing process, and it errors out because it can't get the port. After a couple of hundred aborted restarts, I finally get home so I can fix it.
Your description indicates that it will kill the process if it pings out, I'm just wondering if it does any additional checking to make sure the process really is dead. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Saint K." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, June 28, 2005 9:46 AM Subject: [hlds] Release: Server checker V1
We have released the first version of our server checker for hl1 and hl2 based servers. This program is created to keep your server online at all times. Now you think, we already have firedeamon and such, why get another tool? Our tool is differant. Instead of just checking if the procces is still alive, like all programs do, ours actually pings your server in order to check if its still online. The program sends out a ping request every 3 seconds with a timeout of 1 second. If it fails pinging 10 times (30 seconds) it will kill the procces and restart it. This tool was origionally build for our wc3 servers, as they often just stall instead of crash (so it never actually shuts down the proccess). On the download page you can also download the source and edit it to your own needs if you like.
