restart sc_trans with a cron job Linux

[helios399]

Hi all,

I 'll want to restart sc_trans each night (because I want to load a new playlist) with a crontab job Linux...
Can I do that and how ?
With PHP, or a sh...

Is there an other method to load a new playlist without restart sc_trans ?

Thanks all for your advice.

you could probably make a grep on the running processes to be able to find that as the pid is stored in the log files but when the logs are (auto)-rotated then it'd be moved into a different file so wouldn't be of much use. there's probably a more elegant way of doing it but that's all which comes to mind at the moment.
