Hello
this is a little script that will make your TeaSpeak server to autostart itself on startup and on server crashes
with this tutorial you can assure your Teaspeak server is always running even after crashes

first go to your /home

 cd /home

then make a file named tsanticrash.sh

 nano tsanticrash.sh

then an empty screen will be opened .then paste the codes below into it(simply copy code here and paste them into that empty screen by just RIGHT CLICK on putty )

#!/bin/bash
case $1 in
teaspeakserver)
teaspeakserverpid=`ps ax | grep TeaSpeakServer | grep -v grep | wc -l`
if [ $teaspeakserverpid -eq 1 ]
then exit
else cd /home/teaspeak/
./teastart.sh start
fi
;;
esac

Important Note : change the "/home/teaspeak/" to the exact installation folder
then pres combinations of these two buttons on your keyboard (CTRL+X) then Press type y and then press ENTER to save and exit

then run this command below to grant permission to the file you just created

 chmod 777 tsanticrash.sh

then you have to create a cronjob for this script to check it every 1 minutes

you will then enter into your system cronjobs area

What happens to the script if I stop the server to work, do I have to delete the script?

Go to your crontab, comment the script line and save it.
The script will stop working

What happens to the script if I stop the server to work, do I have to delete the script?

just enter your crontab with typing "crontab -e"
find that code (*/1 * * * * /home/tsanticrash.sh teaspeakserver)
and simply put an # in the begining of it

#*/1 * * * * /home/tsanticrash.sh teaspeakserver

then save and quit crontab
