Shoutcast Startup and Shut-down Script - Any one has a working one (Resolved)
  • I search high and low,hills and valleys  now I am in the Gutter.

    I want to use shoutcast server for a client Airtime as a relay and back up  (fail mount backup).

    Anyone one with a working script plus with a cron to check every 25 sec  to ensure its working.

    Please Give me one that works,that You have that is working on your system.Please do not quotes links.

    I tried a number of them and they are more suitable for desktops not servers.

    Or if you are proficient in using /etc/init.d/skeleton to create start up script guide me through one you have tested and it works.

    I do not have the time to test and modify so I will with what you have verbatim

  • Found this which works

    I did a cron -e  ( not as sudo because I run shoutcast as a seperate user)

    Also had to edit the conf files logs and put them in /var/logs/myfile  for it to work

    and its all well
