srcds monitoring software
#1
sometimes the server hangs and doesn't restart itself.I want some one to point me to a software that monitors the server by sending rcons to it and if the server replys to do nothing but if the server doesn't to Ctrl + c and then start the screen again.

Does anybody know such software ?

I have written a shell script to do this:

Code:
#!/bin/sh

PORTS="27015 29015"
IP="yourip"
RCONPW="yourpassword"
NMAX=24

echo Watching ports: $PORTS

while /bin/true; do

  for PORT in $PORTS; do

    echo -n "$PORT "

    RET=`./rcon -P$RCONPW -p$PORT -a$IP echo hangcheck | head -n 1`
    if [ "x$RET" != "xhangcheck " ]; then
      chmod 666 .hangcount.$PORT
      N=`cat .hangcount.$PORT`
      N=$(( N + 1 ))
      echo
      echo "Attempt $N failed to port $PORT..."
      if [ $N -ge $NMAX ]; then
        PID=`ps ax | grep -e "-port $PORT" | grep -v grep | sed -e "s/ pts.*\$//"`
        echo "sending SIGKILL to $PID..."
        kill -9 $PID
        N=0
      fi
    else
      N=0
    fi
    echo $N > .hangcount.$PORT

  done

  sleep 5

done

It requires a program called 'rcon' for the rcon connections. You can download it here:
http://pool.beta-centauri.de/rcon
Put it into the same directory as the script. Run the script in some screen to monitor its operation...

EDIT: run the servers with -autoupdate, the script only kills the servers if they are hung!

Probably an invalid map. Or a plugin causing this.

NMAX=24 defines a maximum number of consecutive failures before it kills the server.

you are still using a wrong version. I forget to remove my own rcon password (don't try, it's already changed Toungue), so copy the whole script from my post above again.

"LD_PRELOAD=" does nothing and can be removed :-)
