How to make your own wServer.exe restarter - C#

[krazyshank]

This is a very simplistic method you can use to make your own restarter.

You'll notice that when the web server chashes, instead of closing, windows fault detection kicks in and prompts the user for "advice".
This is WerFault.exe. If we run a method that detects it running, we can then close it, and execute our server again.

Process[] prs = Process.GetProcesses(); //use the windows API to get an array of current processes on the local machine.
                    foreach (Process pr in prs) 
                    {
                        if (pr.ProcessName == "WerFault") //for each process there is, if its name is "WerFault" then...
                        {
                            pr.Kill(); //KILL IT!
                            Process.Start(@"C:\PooperScooper\bin\wServer.exe"); //Then start wServer again, in the ""s put your path to wServer
                        }
                    }

Now obviously this method will only check and restart ONCE. We need to call it every few seconds so it will check every few seconds.
A simple way to do is is by creating a new timer on your form or in your console app and for the "tick" event for your timer put the code above.
(for windows form users, you can drag a timer from the toolbox in visual studio, doubleclick it and you'll be brought to an auto-generaterated event handler for your timer called "timer_tick". Inside the brackets put the code above.)
EXAMPLE:

private void timer1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
               // PASTE THE CODE:
               Process[] prs = Process.GetProcesses(); //use the windows API to get an array of current processes on the local machine.
                    foreach (Process pr in prs) 
                    {
                        if (pr.ProcessName == "WerFault") //for each process there is, if its name is "WerFault" then...
                        {
                            pr.Kill(); //KILL IT!
                            Process.Start(@"C:\PooperScooper\bin\wServer.exe"); //Then start wServer again, in the ""s put your path to wServer
                        }
                    }
         }

DON'T FORGET TO START YOUR TIMER!
Example being having a button, that when pressed, calls timer1.Start();

yeah this isn't the best tut but it will help a few people for sure
have fun!

Whrn i use your Krazy Pserver, when it crashes it auto restarts. Is this for older versions of your pservers?
Also, when it crashes nothing comes up. At least on my 2 laptops.

This has nothing to do with KrazyServer.
It's to make your own application, how you want to.

Small question forgot about this, but when i try to use your KrazyServer2 Item Spawner, it brings up something like "the specified program "Adobeflashblahblahblah" could not be found. The Spawner is not compatible with anything else. Just wondering how to fix it.
Edit: Also i get it now @Abovecomments

Can you guys please post that stuff elsewhere. Or just pm me...

Sorry. i thought it was just a quick question. :/

Not bad Krazy, try doing one that attaches to teh process as a virtual debugger and watch for exceptions that are not catcher .net has a built in library for it

Yeah i'm aware of that, this is just a simple way for less-knowledgeable people

True and it works, so thats a plus

Import the Diagnostics class.
( using System.Diagnostics; )

Ah thank you

Hrm, when i use it, after wserver crashes it goes totally chaotic and opens tons and tons of wservers and giving me an unknown error or something.
