Need Ubuntu Autorestart script for my Server.

[Lejo]

Problem detached!
I need a script to restart my server "Subgames for all!" after a shut down.
The Version of ubuntu is 16.04 LTS.
In the moment I start the server with this command:

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

minetest --server --worldname Subgames

The Port is 30001 and the server don't need to shutdown regularly.
Can I place the script everywhere or must be it in a special order?

Please help me to restart the Server automatic.
Thanks.

If all you want is for it to start back up when it shuts down, try this:

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

while true; do minetest --server --worldname Subgames; done

Create a .sh file to be used as a starting point then copy the code into it and save. I suggest storing in your home directory so you don't have to cd to get to it. Then just do ctrl+alt+T ./<scriptname>.sh

Thanks again but I have still a script from: cheapie
It works fine.
But thanks too.

The second script is better as it will stop / slow down a crash loop from filling up a folder and potentially crashing the OS.
