[lug] Re: Running a PHP script as a daemon - Restart it automatically

[Gordon Golding]

>>>and restart if for some reason PHP encounters a critical error and crashes (connection drop for example).

I do a simple restart on Postgres - a cron job checks for postmaster process - if it doesn't find it, it restarts Postgres.

Anybody have a more "elegant" solution?  Like pipe 2> to a script that will hear the error and do a restart immediately.....?

Or start it in a loop in a script that just restarts it when it dies and returns control to its mother process....?

I imagine there is a "professional" way to do this.... ;-)
