console output to txt file - Page 3

Mark Rose · 2015-09-28, 14:40

I run mprime through screen. screen has the -L switch to log output (in the current working directory where you launch screen). I run screen like this:

screen -LdmS mprime /path/to/mprime.exe -d

This has the added benefit that I can detach, reattach, or share the screen session across multiple terminals. The -d switch tells screen to start detached, the -m switch tells it to terminate the screen when the following command exits, and the -S screen gives the screen session a name (useful when using multiple screen sessions).

I put the screen command in my crontab like so:

@reboot sleep 30; cd /path/to/mprime/dir && screen -LdmS mprime ./mprime.exe -d

I use a script /etc/init.d/mprime which fires up mprime and logs to /var/log/mprime.log.
It then restarts automatically on reboot. I connect to my (headless) systems using mosh:

Code:

mosh mprime@hostname byobu

(there is also a user called mprime on my systems) This runs byobu with lots of "screens" (tmux).
