I’m want to run a python script and I need it working 24/7. I have a Raspberry Pi 4 (it’s running the last version of raspbian) and I connect it using VNC but after a few times when I try to connect to my Raspberry Pi to see what’s going on is like the VNC reconnects me and kills the old session (that’s what I think) or maybe just disappear.

  • I already changed idletimeout to 0 and also try to use teamviever but is the same.
  • I think if I connect the Raspberry Pi to HDMI to any screen and then connect via VNC the problem is solved, but I want to know if exists another solution.

  • If you need to run continuously why are you using VNC?

  • I m expressed wrong, I run the python script but then one time per hour i need to check if it s running ok, so i need to keep the session

  • Use an ssh connection and run the script e.g. in a screen. Then you can log off without killing the script and later reconnect via ssh and resume the screen.

If you want to run a python script (or indeed any script) continuously start it running in the background or use tmux.
