How to run exe in mono in the background

Question

Okay, so I have a .net exe, and it runs when I type mono myexe.exe. However, if I want to use another command or close the terminal window the app stops executing.

I have tried using mono myexe.exe & and it runs and showing [8] 20078 etc., but once I type something else it shows [8]+ Stopped, and then executes the command I typed in.

Any ideas?

Answer 1

how about nohup mono myexe.exe &

Answer 2

If you want to use & then look into outputting the result to a file.

nohup mono program.exe > program.out &

The right way of doing this would be to create a daemon with your linux distro.
