I have 2 flask restful API's .
On my localhost, I open up a terminal and run uwsgi --ini /path-to-ini-file1. For 2nd API, I open up yet agan a new terminal and run uwsgi --ini /path-to-ini-file2.
In VPS, I have only a single ssh window.
How do I run those 2 on terminals in vps using ssh. Should I create a bin/bash script to achieve that?
Any suggestion would be appreciated, thank you.

  • Can't you just make a second ssh connection from an other terminal-window ? – Soren A Apr 12 '19 at 13:06
  • @SorenA: Thanks for replying, Sir. So is it like I open up as many ssh windows I want, run commands, and then close them up, and my server would keep running them, until I restart it? Upon closing the ssh on my home pc, would the command be still running on the server? Fairly new to vps, so pardon me for silly questions. – ksalf Apr 12 '19 at 13:13

    If you run the command in foreground (thats what you normally do, the command will terminate when you closethe ssh connection - but that's also what happens when you close the terminal running locally. Maybe you should look at the screen tool. That allows you to have many sessions running at once, and they will survive disconnection / connection to your remote server / VPS. You might have to install screen on your VPS. – Soren A Apr 12 '19 at 13:23
  • @SorenA: Thanks a lot, Sir. Your comment cleared all my doubts, thank you very much. – ksalf Apr 12 '19 at 13:32

To run commands in background and do not have them attach to the terminal you need to use something like:

nohup uwsgi --ini /path-to-ini-file1 >out1.log 2>err1.log&
nohup uwsgi --ini /path-to-ini-file2 >out2.log 2>err2.log&

And you can run as many as need servers (limited by RAM and processor power).

And after you logour from the server you will have them run

If this is supposed to run on an unattended machine, make these a service, so that they are automatically taken care off (started,restarted, logged...). It is not difficult to make a systemd service.
