use this script- **rpc call fail. try to use the script to auto restart when node stop**

 

**```auto
sudo apt install nano
sudo apt install screen**

**```**

 

**```auto
rm -rf /root/.avail/data**

**```**

 

**```auto
screen -S node**

**```**

 

**```auto
sudo systemctl stop avail**

**```**

 

**```auto
sudo nano availscript.sh**

**```**

 

**Copy script and paste into it**

 

**```auto
#!/bin/bash**

**# official script command of Avail scrtip from daningyn
COMMAND="curl -sL1 avail.sh | bash"** 

**# Here is script making LC restart if getting errors
while true; do
    echo "Starting command: $COMMAND"
    # Chạy lệnh trong background
    bash -c "$COMMAND" &**
    

    **PID=$!**
    

    **wait $PID
    EXIT_STATUS=$?**

    **if [$EXIT_STATUS -eq 0]; then
        echo "Command exited successfully. Restarting..."
    else
        echo "Command failed with status $EXIT_STATUS. Restarting..."
    fi
    # 
    sleep 10
done**

**```**

 

**ctrl+x, y enter to save and run**
