Help Plz... Cron Job question....hellp...
Hello Gurus…. I am running a status script written in Perl (*status.pl*) and want to have it *Always Running*. How can I check through CRON that status.pl is running and if NO, then start the script execution again? Please help and advise… With a bundle of thanks! -- Thanks!

Why don't you use the following SH script? whule true; do perl status.pl done It will restart `status.pl' whenever it dies. -- Best wishes, Michaël ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

call a script called script.sh from cron e.g. every minute. script.sh contains: #!/bin/sh ps -a | grep status.pl | | perl status.pl Am Mittwoch 31 Oktober 2007 08:32 schrieb VeeJay: Hello Gurus….
