Having redis-server ON (launched with redis-server &).
Running this command in a terminal works perfectly:
kill -s SIGTERM "`pgrep redis-server`"But in a script it outputs the following message and does not kill the process:
myscript.sh: line 17: kill: 1448
1452: arguments must be process or job IDs(if I do: pgrep redis-server in this example it will outputs me 1448)
My complete source script:
#!/bin/bash
if [ -a "redis-server_must_be_ON" ]
then if [ "`redis-cli PING`" != "PONG" ] then redis-server & if [ "`redis-cli PING`" != "PONG" ] then echo "redis-server still not running while it should have been set on." >> /dev/stderr exit 1 fi fi
else if [ "`redis-cli PING`" == "PONG" ] then kill -s SIGTERM "`pgrep redis-server`" if [ "`redis-cli PING`" == "PONG" ] then echo "redis-server still running while it should have been set off." >> /dev/stderr exit 1 fi fi
fi(Here if I replace the pgrep redis-server with some sort of mascarade like pgrep bash1.sh it also works fine).
Is my script correct, what do I miss ?
