(icecast.xml) <server_pid>/path/to/my/file.pid</server_pid> instead of using a shell script to facilitate this. <p>Dave St John (CEO) Mediacast1.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Brendan Cully" <brendan@xiph.org> To: <icecast@xiph.org> Sent: Tuesday, November 04, 2003 6:24 PM Subject: Re: [icecast] capturing pid from command line <p>> On Tuesday, 04 November 2003 at 18:12, Dave St John wrote:> > tried that already but it doesnt catch the parent, it captures one ofthe> > children. > > > > Would the fact that the server runs as a user and not as root having > > anything to do with $! not working, since it works with shoutcast > > running as root? > > ... > > > icecast -c /path/icecast.xml & > > > echo $! > ... > > off the top of my head, to get the parent of $! you might try > something like: > > child=$! > parent=`ps -ef | egrep "^[a-z]+ *$child" | awk '{print $3}' > > -b > --- >8 ---- > List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ > icecast project homepage: http://www.icecast.org/ > To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to'icecast-request@xiph.org'> containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.

tried that already but it doesnt catch the parent, it captures one of the children. Would the fact that the server runs as a user and not as root having anything to do with $! not working, since it works with shoutcast running as root? <p>Dave St John (CEO) Mediacast1.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Karl Heyes" <karl@xiph.org> To: <icecast@xiph.org> Sent: Tuesday, November 04, 2003 4:51 AM Subject: Re: [icecast] capturing pid from command line <p>> On Tue, 2003-11-04 at 07:13, Drew Bertola wrote:> > On Mon, 2003-11-03 at 21:53, Dave St John wrote: > > > Anyone know of or how to capture the pid via the command line in bash? > > > > pidof ??? > > > > $ pidof httpd > > 827 825 824 788 > > pidof is ok if there is only on instance of the process, else trysomething> along the lines of using a wrapper script > > icecast -c /path/icecast.xml & > echo $! > > > > karl. > > --- >8 ---- > List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ > icecast project homepage: http://www.icecast.org/ > To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to'icecast-request@xiph.org'> containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.
