I need to restart Apache and Varnish and email some logs when the script can't fetch robots.txt but I am getting an error
./healthcheck: 43 [[: not found
My server is Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit
#!/bin/sh
# Check if can fetch robots.txt if not then restart Apache and Varnish
# Send last few lines of logs with date via email
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin
THEDIR=/tmp/web-server-health
[email protected]
mkdir -p $THEDIR
if ( wget --timeout=30 -q -P $THEDIR http://website.com/robots.txt )
then
# we are up
touch ~/.apache-was-up
else
# down! but if it was down already, don't keep spamming
if [[ -f ~/.apache-was-up ]]
then
# write a nice e-mail
echo -n "Web server down at " > $THEDIR/mail
date >> $THEDIR/mail

echo "Apache Log:" >> $THEDIR/mail
tail -n 30 /var/log/apache2/error.log >> $THEDIR/mail
