auto restart oscam on dm500 server

[smoggie]

Been trying to get this working but no luck
using this script here
#!/bin/sh

process=`ps auxwww | grep oscam | grep -v grep | awk '{print $1}'`
if [ -z "$process" ]; then
echo "Couldn't find oscam running. Restarting server-binary" >> /var/log/oscam.check
nohup /var/bin/oscam >> /var/log/oscam.log &
else
echo "oscam is still OK!" >> /var/log/oscam.check
fi

I am using cccam2.1 & oscam 6359 on gemini image
I have added the above script to var/script and set attributes to 755. I have went into blue panel>services/daemons and started crond. In set up I have added/var/script/OscamCheck.sh to run every 5 mins.
Used a killall command to stop oscam but it has not restarted.Any help appreciated.

[smoggie]

someon on forum must have some idea

[Rodbouy]

Why do you want this or need this?

If OScam is needing restarted from anything else other than a box crash then there is something wrong.

Your adding to something as simplistic as OScam on a Dm500 when there is no need mate.

What problems are you having?

[smoggie]

box is running gemini 4.7 ccam 2.13 & oscam 6539
Sometimes oscam bottles it and stop working. The reason I want the script is so that it checks every 5 mins that oscam is working and if not it will start it.
I intially added the script to var/script but tonight I have added it to var/bin as I think from my searching thats where it should go.
I have went into blue panel and set up a new cron task var/bin/OscamCheck.sh to run every 5 mins

[Rodbouy]

I have never used Yemeni but I would scrap cccam and use only oscam.

Oscam in a dm500 runs sweet mate. Don't over complicate it with scripts and cccam etc.

Keep it simple.

I have never had a oscam stopping issue unless box freezes and crashes which is about 3 times in the last 3 years. Rare

[smoggie]

I guess its an option but I will then have to change my lines

[smoggie]

"I have never had a oscam stopping issue unless box freezes and crashes which is about 3 times in the last 3 years. Rare "

Is that running oscam alone on a dm500 server?

Yes mate, you dont need to change the lines you have say in other boxes around the house shall we say, you just need to add the user pass details to OScam.user

Then enable dvbapi in oscam.conf and the protocol that you are using in other boxes such as cccam or newcamd

or you can use camd to connect boxes

How does this look?? So I now need to remove cccam from test1(server) along with the cfg file ans run oscam as cardserver. My box downstairs (localdm1) remains the same.

Now the boxes say in your home can still use their existing cccam cline for as long as the user pass port is same as oscam.user and port in oscam.conf

Oscam stable 1.10 but not sure what build they are on the now. Site seems to be down, not been on it for some time.

[smoggie]

cheers for help Rodbouy, getting there slowly. I have added user account to oscam conf but I am getting timeout on the connection. User account is showing online.

[smoggie]

will have a bash at it at the weekend again. Sure its just something simple vecause everythhing seems to be working bar getting pic on tv. Been having a look here http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums...02/index3.html and reading your posts on page 7

[Rodbouy]

if its not clearing on box

make sure the dvbapi user s the same as a uer acc in oscam.user

this is the built in cam to clear in the box

[Rodbouy]

Did you manually install OScam ?

[smoggie]

havent tried again but I didnt manually install oscam. I stopped cccam via blue panel and left only oscam running as cardserver. Typed in "ps" in telnet to confirm that only oscam was running. Will post back at the weekend. Cheers Rodbouy.
