Greetings,
Here is a Linux jboss init script that is the result
of a discussion on jBoss-User 02/05/2001-02/12/2001, under
the heading "Starting jBoss as a service on linux.
Marc Fleury asked me to post it here when it was finished.
Thanks to Michael Drew, Toby Allsopp, and Tom Cook for their help.
1. First, a variant to "run.sh", called "go.sh",
that allows the option to run jBoss in the background,
whch is how it gets run from the init script. In addition,
it does a simple test for a JDK version, since the "-server"
switch does not work for all versions( eg IBM).
2. Second, a jboss init script.
There are some differences between how jboss will run as a service,
and how jboss will run when started from a user's shell due to the
way jboss loads its classpath. When started from a shell it first adds
"run.jar" to the users $CLASSPATH. When started as a service this
classpath
will be empty. I have put a reminder in the init script to add special
classpath information should it be needed.
3. I also have an simple rpm.spec file for building jboss rpms,
and manual packages from the cvs repertory, if anyone is interested.
Apparent Roland Kaufman has also posted links on this list to
similar work he has done. I haven't had time to look at his
scripts and files, so I don't know If what I have
here is redundant.
Cheers,
Chris Albert
Thus, for "go.sh" , ommitting some details, including the jetty and
tomcat options found in run.sh of jBoss_FINAL-2.0.
