Auto Restart shoutcast on reboot?

[wickedwebsites]

I installed Shoutcast, and set it running..

i am accessing it, but for some reason it keeps stopping..

How can i make it restart automatically when i start plesk, or do a reboot?

Thanks
Drew

...SHOUTcast has nothing to do with Plesk. You could, however, set a cron to run the start commands everytime the server is started.

a better solution would be to install and learn how to use deamontools.

There are example scripts for it all over the internet.

Why not just add the command to start shoutcast to /etc/rc.local ?

I looked at Crontab, i have logged in as root, created a dir called sc and installed shoutcast in there..

so, what is the exact location of my files? I dont really know the structure of linux.

is there something i can do to find out?

Thanks

just add a line to /etc/rc.d/rc.local

echo "/path/to/script" >> /etc/rc.d/rc.local

make sure script is executable...
