When i ran my bot on windows i had it running in a batch loop.

Now i have it running (using screen) on a linux server. I need a similar loop, lest it crashes.


Can anyone explain how to do this in nix?

thanks

By DOS loop, do you mean something equivalent to this?
Code:
Loop:<br />perl bot.pl<br />goto Loop


Or do you mean a loop inside the Perl code, or what?

The first one (batch file loops) doesn't have much effect on the bot's ability to run, it just will restart the bot if it happens to crash. If your Linux bot is crashing, then all a looping shell script would do is keep restarting it, only to let it crash again.

So we need more information. :rolleyes:

That will constantly run the bot

To run it in the background use:

Quote:
nohup perl bot.pl &

Sad sorry... I ran it just to see and came up with quite a few sites...
But I didn't want to just post some code and say try this cuz I have no linux machine to test it on.
