The script (which I've taken over from a far better shellprogammer) looks as follows: #!/bin/sh RTSPCONTROL="/usr/local/etc/rc.d/rtspproxy.sh" cd `dirname $0` cd ../.. PREFIX=/usr/local case $1 in start) echo -n ' rtspproxy' RTSPPROXY=${PREFIX}/sbin/rtspproxy PID_FILE=/var/run/rtspproxy.pid [ -x ${RTSPPROXY} ] && ${RTSPPROXY} > /dev/null & && echo $! > $ {PID_FILE} ;; stop) if [ -f /var/run/rtspproxy.pid ]; then kill `cat /var/run/rtspproxy.pid` rm /var/run/rtspproxy.pid fi ;; check) for pidfile in `find /var/run -name 'rtspproxy.pid'` do if ! kill -0 `head -1 $pidfile` > /dev/null ;then echo "$pidfile process is dead! Restarting..." logger -p daemon.err -t rtspproxy.sh "$pidfile process is dead! Restarting..." ARGS=start rm -f $pidfile ${RTSPCONTROL} ${ARGS} fi done ;; esac The problem line is line 12: [ -x ${RTSPPROXY} ] && ${RTSPPROXY} > /dev/null & && echo $! > $ {PID_FILE} When I run `/usr/local/etc/rc.d/rtspproxy.sh start I get this error /usr/local/etc/rc.d/rtspproxy.sh: 12: Syntax error: "&&" unexpected The script starts the file and redirects the output from rtspproxy (the PID) to the PID_FILE so that the check part can use it later. Since my knowledge in shellscripting is not enough to rewrite the script, I ask for help here. -- Gunnar Flygt OPC Data Sveriges Radio
