running in background

Shell Programming and Scripting
1

i have a script called server.sh.

how to run this script in backgroung using nohup command

2

to run any script in the background use the operator '&'

Usage: server.sh & nohup

3

The nohup needs to go before the command. You might also want to take care to redirect output to a file (otherwise it goes to nohup.out)

nohup server.sh >server.out 2>&1 &

Any introductory Unix text should explain this.

Hi era,
the code that i have given is ok or not?

5

Not. But you don't really have to ask; try it.

vnix$ sleep 1 & nohup
nohup: missing operand 
Try 'nohup --help' for more information.

(This is bash; if you have a different shell, its output will likely be different.)

Try

$nohup server.sh / &
