    Bot Check on Linux
    « on: September 05, 2005, 03:50:16 pm »
    I created a small perl script to make sure my bot is running and haven't seen anything like it on the boards, so I am sharing it here.

    Shelly

    bot_check.pl
    #!/usr/bin/perl

    # Author: Shelly
    # Notes:
    # 1. Replace all "YourBotName" with what ever the name of your bot.
    # 2. Replace your_account\@your_mail_host with the email address you want to recieve your
    # logs and notifications at.
    # 3. I also place the bot in it's own directory (YourBotName), but save the logs in bebot's home directory.
    # This way I can run multiple bots.
    # 4. Crontab Entry for Fedora Core/ Vixie Cron
    # 0/10 * * * * cd /home/bebot; ./bot_check.pl >/dev/null

    #
    ##
    ### Check for AO Bots and restart if necessary
    ##
    ## bebot 12007 11929 0 11:45 pts/0 00:00:00 php -f YourBotName/start.php
    #

    $mdate = `date +%b-%d-%Y`;

    $z = `ps -ef |grep YourBotName |grep -v grep`;
    chop($z);
    if ($z eq "")
    {
    system("mail your_account\@your_mail_host -s \"Starting YourBotName bot on web1\" </home/bebot/YourBotName.log");
    system("mv /home/bebot/YourBotName.log /home/bebot/YourBotName.log-${mdate}");
    system("cd /home/bebot; /usr/local/bin/php -f /home/bebot/YourBotName/start.php > /home/bebot/YourBotName.log &");
    }

    Made a bash script, and since i'm running multiple bots, check the botname, and bot dir.

    • Works if you're running bots as:
    Code: [Select]
    php -f StartBot.php <botname>
    • Logs are saved in the bot's logdir, with .log instead of .txt.

    The script:
    Code: [Select]
    #!/bin/bash
    ### bot crontab script by [email protected]
    ###
    ### run as <script_name> <bot_dir> <bot_name> <bot_dimension (1, 2 or 3)>

    # code
    if [ ! "`ps x -o args | grep "php -f StartBot.php "$2"" | grep -v grep | cut -d " " -f 4`" = "$2" ]; then
            cd "$HOME"/"$1"/; php -f StartBot.php $2 >> log/`echo "$2" | tr "A-Z" "a-z"`\@RK"$3"/`date +%Y-%m-%d.log` 2>&1 &
    fi
    Example crontab:
    Code: [Select]
    */5 * * * * /home/user/bot_check.sh bots/org Botty 1

    Vain,

    The below should work for you: (but I don't have any AOC bots so not positive)

    • Works if you're running bots as:
    Code: [Select]
    php -f StartBot.php <botname>
    • Logs are saved in the bot's logdir, with .log instead of .txt.

    The script:
    Code: [Select]
    #!/bin/bash
    ### bot crontab script by [email protected]
    ### Modified by Shelly
    ### run as <script_name> <bot_dir> <bot_name>

    # code
    if [ ! "`ps x -o args | grep "php -f StartBot.php "$2"" | grep -v grep | cut -d " " -f 4`" = "$2" ]; then
            cd "$HOME"/"$1"/; php -f StartBot.php $2 >> log/`echo "$2" | tr "A-Z" "a-z"`/`date +%Y-%m-%d.log` 2>&1 &
    fi
    Example crontab:
    Code: [Select]
    */5 * * * * /home/user/bot_check.sh bot_home Your_bot_name

    Updated my scripts a bit so it minimizes the processes that run, and doesn't end up in a defunct launcher shell script.

    Crontab:
    Code: [Select]
    */5 * * * * nohup /path/to/launcher Botname 2>/dev/null 1>&2 &
    Launcher:
    Code: [Select]
    [[ ! $(ps x -o args | grep "/usr/bin/php ./Main.php $1" | grep -v grep | cut -d " " -f 3) = $1 ]] && {
        cd $HOME/dit/to/bot/
        exec /usr/bin/php ./Main.php $1 2>/dev/null 1>&2
    }
    Resulting processes (ps x):
    Code: [Select]
      PID TTY      STAT   TIME COMMAND
     7703 pts/5    S      0:17 /usr/bin/php ./Main.php Botname

    Not sure your question been answered or if you've figured it out yet here is what your crontab should look like:
    Code: [Select]
    0 * * * * yourcommand

    If this doesnt work on your version, which I doubt, you might want to try * */1 * * * instead.

    You can also use a line like:
    Code: [Select]
    0 * * * * nohup /path/to/launcher Botname 2>/dev/null 1>&2 &in your crontab. This runs the launcher every hour on the hour.

    Or if you want to get real specific:
    Code: [Select]
    0 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23 * * * nohup /path/to/launcher Botname 2>/dev/null 1>&2 &This runs the launcher every hour on the hour also.

    hmm sorry i realy new to ubuntu hosting here.

    I used the last updated script from lean.

    in 'crontab -e'
    Code: [Select]

    # m h  dom mon dow   command

    #-----------------------------------------------------------------
    # Shell variable for cron
    SHELL=/bin/bash
    # PATH variable for cron
    PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/bin/X11
    #M   S     T M W   Befehl
    #-----------------------------------------------------------------
    * * * * * nohup /home/user/bebot/bebot_old/bebot/bot_check.sh botname 2>/dev/null 1>&2 &
    * * * * * echo hello
    #-----------------------------------------------------------------


    i gave the bot_chech.sh chmod +x

    but still its not working.

    any ideas?

    and is it possible to start a bot in a new "screen" using screen -S or screen -r ?

    I run my bots in screens to prevent them stopping when my ssh session dies.

    yes, i would liek to know if botcheck can start the bots in screens

    And i would be glad to here if i setup up the bot_check script right.

    Because when i shutdown the bot, the crontab isnt restarting it.

    Launcher:
    Code: [Select]
    [[ ! $(ps x -o args | grep "/usr/bin/php ./Main.php $1" | grep -v grep | cut -d " " -f 3) = $1 ]] && {
        cd $HOME/dit/to/bot/
        exec /usr/bin/php ./Main.php $1 2>/dev/null 1>&2
    }

    isnt there a "if" missing at the start pf the script?

    Hi,
    i got this script running now, with a small modification as im not starting the bots with -f parameter.
    The newer version doesnt work as mentioned in my other post.

    Does someone can tell me how i can now start the bots in a new "screen"  to connect to it and see whats going on?

    thx

    Try starting with this:
    Code: [Select]
    screen -S "bebot" -m -d bash -c 'cd ~/bebot/; php -f StartBot.php'
    List your screens
    Code: [Select]
    screen -ls
    Reconnect to your screen
    Code: [Select]
    screen -r bebot
