Topic: Bitcoind server wrapper (Read 989 times)
Actually, I figured it out. Did some digging around and finally figured out how to write bash scripts. The script I made is posted below, il update the OP with it as well
perhaps instead of persisting with bitcoind, you could consider this option:
cURL
+
http://blockchain.info/api/blockchain_wallet_api
cURL
+
http://blockchain.info/api/blockchain_wallet_api
you could run a command that ask the server for the balance, if it takes too long, kill the server and restart.
Sorry I forgot to mention, yes in linux. Would there be a way to say, run the script, which starts the server, and then checks to see if the server is still running say every 10 minutes, if not restart server?
#!/bin/bash
while true
do
sleep 600
killall -9 bitcoind
sleep 5
/etc/init.d/bitcoind start
done
this would kill the bitcoind every 10 minutes and restart it.
linux or windows?
Hey all, iv been having some issues with my Bitcoind server crashing due to running out of RAM. Obvious solution would be to just get more RAM, but currently cant afford that for at least a few weeks. Does anyone know of a wrapper that would automatically restart bitcoind once it detects a crash? Or maybe a tutorial/resource that would show me how to write up a quick script that would accomplish this? Major PITA to manually restart it each time.
also this is in linux.
*edit* Heres the solution I came up with. Fairly simple bash script that checks the server every 10 minutes.
