Linux VPS and SA-MP server. (With screen). - iGetty - 16.01.2013

Whenever I was to do an update, I am required to reboot the whole VPS, which includes my TeamSpeak and other things.

I can't use a /gmx command or /rcon gmx, as it just doesn't stop the script? It just kicks everyone and stays online without restarting?

Therefore meaning I need to go via putty SSH client and use the command:

reboot

Meaning the whole VPS needs to be restarted.

Is there a way, with screen to stop the server running without having to reboot?

EG: I use screen ./samp03svr to start the server, I then press CTRL A + D, then close PuTTy.

Is there ANY way at all I can do all this without rebooting the VPS? Like a command similar to ./samp03svr, to stop it?

Thanks!

I know there is a way you can kill the process, try using "killall samp03svr"

Tried that. Doesn't work.

and what command exactly do you use to start your server?

Re: Linux VPS and SA-MP server. (With screen). - SchurmanCQC - 16.01.2013

Код:

# grep samp03svr
# kill [process id returned by grep]

or...

Код:

# pidof samp03svr
# kill [process id returned by pidof]

If these don't work, it's probably because you're using a different linux server, but I'm sure these commands are generally in all versions of linux. (CentOS, Redhat etc)

I said in the first post.

"screen ./samp03svr"

That doesn't kill it either, the kill command.

I don't have any idea what's wrong

Also; I'm using CentOS.

Try running the server with "./samp03svr &"

Код:

# kill -9 [pid]

or..

Код:

# killall -9 samp03svr

@Brandon, when I do that, I can't close PuTTy or it closes the server.

THANK YOU THANK YOU SCHURMAN! Life saver! <3

-9 is an override permissions code (or something like that?) to be used when kill or killall doesn't work.
