Guys,
I've been looking to run one of my applications as a Deamon on a linux based system. I've been looking at this recipe this morning and it all looks relatively fine: http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python/Recipe/278731 I just noted that the recipe was written 5 years ago and thought I would see if there have been any progressions in Python which allow a more native approach to forking my application as a daemon? I essentially want to add a command line parameter "--as-daemon" to my application which would fork it as a daemon instead of running it as a standard python script, I also want to ensure that stdin/out/err are all configured in a way which means any exceptions thrown by the application or data output to the command line, which I haven't foreseen will be stored in a log file for review. I'd really appreciate your advice and experience. Cheers, Robert
