[SOLVED] Shell screen problem

Cuuky · 08-06-2018, 05:44 AM

Hey,

im a starter in writing shell scripts so please be kind ^^
My problem:
I wrote 2 shell script which starts a jar in a screen.
Then i wanted to start this 2 screens with one script.
The script runs, but the screen doesn't open.
Yes, i could instead of running the other scripts in a seperate file just paste the code in the main shell file but then the jar wouldn't run in the right folder.
If run the scripts manually everything works.

Here the code of the 2 shell scripts:

PHP Code:



#!/bin/bash
screen -S Master -d -m java -jar "Cloudy Master 0.1.2-obf.jar"

PHP Code:



#!/bin/bash
screen -S Wrapper -d -m java -jar "Cloudy Wrapper 0.1.2-obf.jar"

The Main Script

PHP Code:



#!/bin/bash
/home/Cloud/Master/startMaster.sh
sleep 5
/home/Cloud/Wrapper/startWrapper.sh

*Yes, i did check the permissions of the files*

Thank you in advance

I think you can do it in the main script itself and won't need to call other scripts. It may matter that you use the full paths to the programs though:

Code:

/usr/bin/screen -S Master -d -m -- /usr/bin/java -jar "Cloudy Master 0.1.2-obf.jar"  
/usr/bin/screen -S Wrapper -d -m -- /usr/bin/java -jar "Cloudy Wrapper 0.1.2-obf.jar"

Using the double dash -- tells screen not to pay interpret any more options. So then the rest is passed on to the screen session.

Then you can reconnect:

Code:

screen -dRR -S Master

or

Code:

screen -dRR -S Wrapper

All that assumes that the java program is running.
