Re: status from shell script (System V starup)

[Doug Reeder]

Thanks for the suggestion -- I didn't want to have to modify the start script to save the PID. Here's what I've come up with -- it's not polished, but does what you need a System V startup script to do:

#! /bin/sh
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides:          geronimo
# Required-Start:    $local_fs $remote_fs
# Required-Stop:     $local_fs $remote_fs
# Default-Start:     2 3 4 5
# Default-Stop:      S 0 1 6
# Short-Description: Apache Geronimo application server
# Description:       Apache Geronimo startup script
### END INIT INFO
set -e

PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
#DESC="Apache Geronimo"
NAME=geronimo
USER=gdaemon
JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk
GERONIMO_HOME=/usr/local/geronimo
DAEMON=$GERONIMO_HOME/bin/geronimo.sh
SCRIPTNAME=/etc/init.d/$NAME
GERONIMO_ADMIN=gadmin
GERONIMO_PASSWORD=xxxxxx

# JAVA_HOME must be set
export JAVA_HOME

# Gracefully exit if the package has been removed.
test -x $DAEMON || exit 0

#
#       Function that starts the daemon/service.
#
d_start() {
        su -c "$DAEMON start" $USER
}

#
#       Function that stops the daemon/service.
#
d_stop() {

}

#
#        Function that gets status
#
d_status() {
    ps_log=`mktemp /var/tmp/geronimo-ps$$.log`
    ps auxww >"$ps_log"

        echo "$NAME is running"
    else
        echo "$NAME is not running"
    fi
    rm -f "$ps_log"
}

case "$1" in
  start)
        echo -n "Starting $NAME"
        d_start
        echo "."
        ;;
  stop)
        echo  "Stopping $NAME"
        d_stop
        echo "."
        ;;
  restart)
        #

        #       just the same as "restart".
        #
        echo  "Restarting $NAME"
        d_stop
        # One second might not be time enough for a daemon to stop,
        # if this happens, d_start will fail (and dpkg will break if
        # the package is being upgraded). Change the timeout if needed
        # be, or change d_stop to have start-stop-daemon use --retry.

        sleep 10
        d_start
        echo "."
        ;;
  status)
        d_status
        echo "."
        ;;
  *)
        echo "Usage: $SCRIPTNAME {start|stop|restart|status}" >&2
        exit 3
        ;;
esac

exit 0

su -c "$DAEMON stop --user $GERONIMO_ADMIN --password $GERONIMO_PASSWORD" $USER if grep " -Dorg.apache.geronimo.base.dir=.*server.jar" "$ps_log" >/dev/null 2>/dev/null; then # If the "reload" option is implemented, move the "force-reload" # option to the "reload" entry above. If not, "force- reload" is # Notice that using --retry slows down the shutdown process somewhat.
