Server auto-restart using cron - Obsidian - 11.04.2018

Hi,

I'm trying to make a server restart with cron since in case of something going wrong, I can restart the vm(vps) and the server will also restart. However, I used the info from WIKI and also from here https://sampforum.blast.hk/showthread.php?tid=512383 (post no: #4) but nothing. I added the cron records as specified in the topic but still nothing.

Here are the screenshots and logs:

From the VPS crontab:

*/1 * * * * /home/sampserver/samp03/autorestart.sh >/dev/null 2>&1
@reboot /home/sampserver/samp03/autorestart.sh >/dev/null 2>&1

Screen with the path & directory of the script:

Script code:

Code:

#!/bin/sh
user=sampserver
serverlocation=/home/sampserver/samp03 #(same directory as samp03svr)
PROCESS_COUNT=$(ps -fu $user | grep samp03svr | grep -v grep | wc -l)
case $PROCESS_COUNT in
0)      cd $serverlocation
        nohup ./samp03svr >>nohup.out 2>&1 &
        printf "PID:%s:" "$!"
;;
1) #OK, program is already running once
;;
*) #OK, program is already multiple times
;;
