-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I am linking to a Bash script that I have modified and am trying to use to catch podcasts. It also requires another helper script which I am attaching in case the problem is there. My version of the script can be found at: ftp://taylor.homelinux.net/software/scripts/cdpodder and both the Bash script and the Python script are in /usr/local/bin on my system. The problem is that this script somehow seems (at least on my system) tu run at least 60 copies of itself, even if it is only called once. I can find nothing in the script that would make it run so many times. Please help me find out if I missed something and help me correct it. This script does what I need it to do, but it is very annoying to get so many emails from Cron telling me that it couldn't move a file that one copy of the script already moved and having the ends of my shows repeated over and over. ps shows something like: lorenzo at taylor:~$ ps aux |grep cdpodder lorenzo 21279 0.0 0.2 2436 1132 ? Ss 04:57 0:00 /bin/bash /usr/local/bin/cdpodder podcasts lorenzo 22454 0.0 0.2 2436 1132 ? Ss 04:58 0:00 /bin/bash /usr/local/bin/cdpodder podcasts lorenzo 23491 0.0 0.2 2436 1128 ? Ss 04:59 0:00 /bin/bash /usr/local/bin/cdpodder podcasts lorenzo 28154 0.0 0.2 2436 1136 ? S 05:04 0:00 /bin/bash /usr/local/bin/cdpodder podcasts lorenzo 28496 0.0 0.2 2436 1136 ? S 05:05 0:00 /bin/bash /usr/local/bin/cdpodder podcasts lorenzo 28635 0.0 0.2 2436 1132 ? S 05:05 0:00 /bin/bash /usr/local/bin/cdpodder podcasts lorenzo at taylor:~$ And those are just the copies running right now. It is running in a cron job that only calls it once, but I get the same problem when I just run it straight from the command line. a~/.cdpodderrc file is also in this directory that is needed to feed the script with the URLs it needs. Be sure to rename cdpodderrc to .cdpodderrc and place it in your home directory, as it is required by the script. If needed, the original script that I modified can be found at: http://linc.homeunix.org:8080/scripts/bashpodder/user_contributed/huw_lynes/ Any help greatly appreciated.
