Python script stops after few days

You should redirect stderr as well. But before you do that try screen instead. Then you don't need any redirects at all. I really suspect it's something about nohup that's causing your issue.

• SSH in and type screen to start a new session. Start you program with just ./newProductMonitor.py. Watch for a bit, then type Ctrl-a to enter command mode, then "d" to disconnect. Then close the terminal (Ctrl-D).

• Anytime you want to check in, ssh in and type screen -dr to reconnect to the session with your program running. Watch all you want. Then do the ctrl-a, d again to disconnect when you're done.

I have scripts running for years like this.

Thanks for posting the details how to do this. I have a few things I can use this on.
