Ok, so tmux new -d -s mySession is the same as tmux new -d -s mySession /bin/bash. And the bash command is running, but in a wait state. Whereas, the example of ll executed and exit, but because it was not in a shell, didn't have a running command to fall back to.
The reason I'm asking is because I want to launch a command in a shared session on system start up so that it's running in the background, "owned" by one user, but accessible to others. I'm using systemd, and I have a service setup, but it's not working. Do you know of any reason ExecStart=/usr/bin/tmux new -d -s mySession /bin/bash would not persist? (I know this isn't multi user, I'm just looking to get a working example) On Mon, Sep 7, 2020 at 9:09 AM Nicholas Marriott < [email protected]> wrote: > if you don't give a command, tmux will start a shell > > creating a session with -d is no different from creating it without except > it does not attach > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "tmux-users" group.
