I use the following script on RedHat 7.3 (I save this as
/etc/rc.d/init.d/tomcat):
#!/bin/bash
#
# Startup script for the Tomcat Web Server
#
# chkconfig: 345 84 16
# description: Tomcat is a World Wide Web server. It is used to serve \
# HTML, JSP, and servlets, and CGI if needed.
# processname: java
case "$1" in
start)
$CATALINA_HOME/bin/startup.sh
;;
stop)
$CATALINA_HOME/bin/shutdown.sh
;;
*)
echo $"Usage: tomcat {start|stop}"
exit 1
esac
exit 0
I then do the following with chkconfig:
chkconfig --add tomcat
chkconfig --level 345 tomcat on
chkconfig --list tomcat
If that still doesn't work, ensure that you've set CATALINA_HOME and
JAVA_HOME in /etc/profile.
Hope that helps,
Mike

Thanks for the reply, I've tried creating a script in the /etc/init.d
directory and then running the chkconfig --add script-name and this hasn't
worked for me.
I'm getting an error saying that:
service service-name does not support chkconfig
I must still be doing something wrong?
The script has the same permissions showing in the ls -l list?

man chkconfig
man serviceconf
man init
For a Java program, write a wrapper shell script like Tomcat authors did
with
catalina.sh.
