Re: Timed full shutdown and restart

Thank you for responding! Unfortunately, it needs to be a full shutdown, not a restart. Restarting though the bot doesn't resolve the issues.

"Die" works, with a manual start or waiting for cron to catch it, and kill -SIGTERM pid works.

I wonder if timer works with DIE.

You can try to automatically restart the eggdrop with the following script: script script

bind cron - "17 */3 * * *" autorestartproc autorestart {min ho day mo dow} {   restart}

script This will perform a .restart every time the hour is a multiple of 3 (0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21) and the minutes are 17.

If the simple restart is not enough, replace it with a die and add a crontab check (have a look to scripts/botchk) with "* * * * *" planification

Timed full shutdown and restart

2024-03-08T05:01:02-04:00

What's the best way to perform a timed FULL, graceful shutdown, then let the bot restart, either through cron or systemd?

I have a bot that gets really wonky after a couple hours, and I want to implement this while I'm trying to resolve the issue. I think I may have to rebuild my hosting environment, as some packages are out of sync, etc.. it's become messy over time as I try to install 3rd party packages that aren't available for my older OS.

Thanks in advance!
