Linux start-up script for java application

I have Jar file to run in Linux using this command:

java -jar SyslogAgent_01.jar开发者_如何学JAVA 192.168.2.154 1998 D:/apachelog.log ApacheLog 13

Can anyone let me know how to create script and implement this process automatically while we restart our computer? In windows we use services but how about linux? Can u provide to me the script and step to do that since i am really new in Linux...

Linux : RHat, Ubuntu

Thanks

I would start with this template for a startup script rename the SCRIPT_HOME to proper path and call this file without any extensions, then in SSH run this command.

chkconfig –add javaserver

Note the javaserver in the chkconfig is how you called the file below, (no extensions or it wont work).

#!/bin/bash
#
# javaserver: Startup script for Any Server Application.
#
# chkconfig: 35 80 05
# description: Startup script for Any Server Application.

SCRIPT_HOME=/var/java_server;
export SCRIPT_HOME

start() {
        echo -n "Starting Java Server: "
        $SCRIPT_HOME/run.sh start
        sleep 2
        echo "done"
}

stop() {
        echo -n "Stopping Java Server: "
        $SCRIPT_HOME/run.sh stop
        echo "done"
}

# See how we were called.
case "$1" in
        start)
                start
                ;;
        stop)
                stop
                ;;
        restart)
                stop
                start
                ;;
        *)
                echo $"Usage: javaserver {start|stop|restart}"
                exit
esac

Now here is the script the run.sh (this can be used instead of the template but I find it easier to make the template script small and unchangeable link to my main script so I never have to touch it again.

The script below is one of a very few scripts I found that actually can restart a java program without turning off all the java programs you currently have running, this one only targets the program it opened in the first place so it will never make any mistakes, never had it fail on me, run on user root no problem.
Runs your program in the background forever too (no need to keep SSH opened).

This is the run.sh

#!/bin/bash
#
# chkconfig: 345 99 05

#
# A non-SUSE Linux start/stop script for Java daemons.

If you want to run the app as linux daemon (service) checkout Java Wrapper: http://wrapper.tanukisoftware.com/doc/english/download.jsp

Check this answer too (is for windows, but for linux changes a little bit): How to install a Java application as a service

While it is not recommended to sudo items like this, it can be accomplished by the following:

sudo crontab -e

Place the following in the cron:

@reboot java -jar SyslogAgent_01.jar 192.168.2.154 1998 D:/apachelog.log ApacheLog 13

Uhh first you might want to edit out your local ip thats more information that your giving out. Anyhow just open up a new document type this

 #!/bin/bash

 #put your commands in here

Save then open up terminal and type chmod +x nameofscript

Im not sure about ubuntu but on arch we have a place to run commands on startup. My advice is to goto system->prefernces->start up applications or something along that line its in that menu I know.

Type the path to the script ie /home/username/scrips/myawesomescript

---

Basically, you need to create a little shell script in /etc/init.d and make symlinks to /etc/rc2.d and /etc/rc5.d. The contents could be like this:

#!/bin/sh
if [ "$1" = start ] ; then
    cd /put_your_workdir_here
    /usr/bin/java -jar SyslogAgent_01.jar 192.168.2.154 1998 D:/apachelog.log ApacheLog 13 &
fi

Notice that you start your program in background (& at the end of the commandline)

you need to create a unix shell script file, that will automate the job for you. Here are the steps to create the script file: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-general-1/shell-script-for-jar-utility-769461/
