Checking if external app already runing

Hi guys,

In my app i have a kind of cron who launch external exe (made in exeoutput as well), i would like to check if there is another instances of that exe files already running in order to prevent launching them several times.

Is it a way to do that in PHP ou hescript or whatever ?

You have an option in the GUI for that:

Yes i know this option, but actualy,i wan’t to handle a app crash by a timeout.

My app’s record the datetime in a sqlite DB at starting.

what i want is:

When the second instance is loading, if another instance is detected, it check the timout and kill the first app if timeout is over or just stop running if not
