Installing supervisord on amazon linux 2023 on EC2

Question

I have a script that runs continuously 24h on an EC2 instance. In a case of server breakdown or restart , i want that script to be restarted automatically. So im considering using tmux and supervisord . I could install  `tmux ` but when i try to install  `sudo yum install supervisor` , get this error .

```
No match for argument: supervisor
Error: Unable to find a match: supervisor
```

Is supervisord not available in the default Amazon Linux 2023 repositories?

That's correct, this page lists all the packages in AL2023, and supervisord isn't one of them https://docs.aws.amazon.com/linux/al2023/release-notes/all-packages-AL2023.3.html

Other installation options, such as using pip, are discussed here http://supervisord.org/installing.html

TIA

Hi bessei,

More generic approach to Linux no matter what kind of distro you are using

The best option is to make systemd service and threat this process as service with checking that is alive and restart if needed

Another option could be use cron and execute command at boot
