Plugin to warn when card is down?

Are there any plugins which alert on screen or by eMail when & if a card you have stops working?

Intermittently one or both of my cards will stop and a gui restart is required to refresh and bring them back up!

Its all the more difficult as you can see the cards listed fine under cccam servers so I usually only notice when I see clients get 'nok' on channels I should have!

Obviously monitoring your cccam output hourly isn't the best option!!

Not a plugin i know off, but a script you can add that detects when oscam web-interface is not responding anymore and when its not, oscam is started again.

Oscam Status Check Script

Looks the ticket MG....

I'm clearly not typing the correct terms in so if anyone has a link to a tutorial that would show me how to start this on boot from a chosen directory that would be appreciated :shame:

Can this be loosely followed?

Edit -

root@bm750:/etc/script# oscamcheck.sh start
oscamcheck.sh: line 10: curl: not found
oscamcheck.sh: line 10: can't create ”/tmp/_tmp”: nonexistent directory
“Checking“033[37oscamcheck.sh: line 17: 31mOscam: not found
oscamcheck.sh: line 17: 40mn”: not found
rm: cannot stat '”/tmp/_tmp”': Not a directory

one of these days I'll learn Linux lol

Is this going to work on a Vu+ if it needs curl installed?

I've found another script that works well on my Vu+

If you set this to check every x minutes it should work fine!

#!/bin/sh

process=`ps auxwww | grep oscam | grep -v grep | awk '{print $1}'`
if [ -z '$process' ]; then
echo "Couldn't find oscam running. Restarting server-binary" >> /var/log/oscam.check
nohup /usr/bin/oscam >> /var/log/oscam.log &
else
echo "oscam is still OK!" >> /var/log/oscam.check
fi

After searching for cron job admin I see *** pirate did this back in August lol

Anyone know how to create a cron job on the Vu+?

I get 'no such file or directory' when trying to 'crontab -e'

Just to tie these in for future reference -

How to set up a cron on BlackHole

I've finished bastardising 2 OSCam check scripts and can confirm this works well!

save the following as oscamcheck.sh and put it in your /usr/script directory

#!/bin/sh




founds=`tail -10 /var/log/oscam.log | grep "not found" | wc -l`
founds2=`tail -10 /var/log/oscam.log | grep "exit with signal" | wc -l`
founds3=`tail -20 /var/log/oscam.log | grep "timeout" | wc -l`




if [ $founds -gt 3 ] || [ $founds2 -ge 1 ] || [ $founds3 -ge 1 ]
then
       echo "Error found, restart...";
       /usr/bin/killall -9 oscam
       /usr/bin/oscam &
else
echo "OSCam is working!" >> /var/log/oscam.check
fi




exit

Notes -

1. ensure you have logging turned on in oscam.conf ie. logfile = /var/log/oscam.log
2. "else echo "OSCam is working!" >> /var/log/oscam.check" --> this line is optional but useful for checking the script is running
