You can ping the http(s) port to see if the server is up or down. -----Original Message----- From: Doug Reeder [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, November 12, 2008 6:57 PM To: [email protected] Subject: status from shell script (System V starup)
I've written a bash shell script to start and stop geronimo, for use with System V startup (scripts in /etc/rc.d/init.d/). Start and stop are straightforward, as the scripts in $GERONIMO_HOME/ bin/ just need to be called, but status is less obvious. The best I've come up with so far is su -l -c "$GERONIMO_HOME/bin/deploy.sh -u $GERONIMO_ADMIN -p $GERONIMO_PASSWORD list-modules" $USER but it's not satisfactory: 1) if geronimo is not running, it produces a stack dump, when all I want is a simple message indicating geronimo is not running 2) I have to include the geronimo administrator password in the script (of course, it also needs to be in the script so geronimo can be shut down). Can anyone suggest something better? If geronimo is running, what would be best is a short list of all the ports it's listening on. (Then one could use netstat or whatever to see if one can actually access them).
