if (system(@args1) != 0) {
logEntry ("No repeater.pl is running, attempting to re
+start");
$repeater;
}
I don't think that's doing what you think it does. As far as I can tell the bare $repeater doesn't do anything. You probably want something like
if (system(@args1) != 0) {
logEntry ("No repeater.pl is running, attempting to re
+start");
$repeater = Proc::Background->new('/etc/squid/repeater
+/lib/repeater.pl');
}
Also, Proc::Background has functions for checking whether or not the process is still running, so you may want to use those instead of shelling out to pgrep:
if (!$repeater->alive()) {
logEntry ("No repeater.pl is running, attempting to re
+start");
$repeater = Proc::Background->new('/etc/squid/repeater
+/lib/repeater.pl');
}
Of course that would not detect a process that was already started when your watcher begins. (But in that case you'd currently have 2 running processes anyway since you unconditionally start one with the initial Proc::Background->new call.)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
