How to install JBoss AS 7 as a Linux service

See also: Start JBoss AS On Linux Boot - applies to JBoss AS 4, 5 and 6

 

 

This assumes you have JBoss AS 7 unzipped under /sw/AS7 .

The following operations are supposed to be done as the root user.

(Any improvements welcome.)

 

1) Create a script /etc/rc.d/init.d/jbossas7

 

Use $JBOSS_HOME/bin/init.d/jboss-as-standalone.sh (recommended).

 

1. cp $JBOSS_HOME/bin/init.d/jboss-as-standalone.sh /etc/rc.d/init.d/jbossas7  

 

Or, if you're into something simpler, you can use this script:

 

1. #!/bin/bash### BEGIN INIT INFO  
2. # Provides:          jbossas7  
3. # Required-Start:    $local_fs $remote_fs $network $syslog  
4. # Required-Stop:     $local_fs $remote_fs $network $syslog  
5. # Default-Start:     2 3 4 5  
6. # Default-Stop:      0 1 6  
7. # Short-Description: Start/Stop JBoss AS 7  
8. ### END INIT INFO  
9. # chkconfig: 35 92 1  
10.   
11. ## Include some script files in order to set and export environmental variables  
12. ## as well as add the appropriate executables to $PATH.  
13. [ -r /etc/profile.d/java.sh ] && . /etc/profile.d/java.sh  
14. [ -r /etc/profile.d/jboss.sh ] && . /etc/profile.d/jboss.sh  
15.   
16. JBOSS_HOME=/sw/AS7  
17.   
18. AS7_OPTS="$AS7_OPTS -Dorg.apache.tomcat.util.http.ServerCookie.ALLOW_HTTP_SEPARATORS_IN_V0=true"   ## See AS7-1625  
19. AS7_OPTS="$AS7_OPTS -Djboss.bind.address.management=0.0.0.0"  
20. AS7_OPTS="$AS7_OPTS -Djboss.bind.address=0.0.0.0"  
21.   
22. case "$1" in  
23.     start)  
24.         echo "Starting JBoss AS 7..."  
25.         #sudo -u jboss sh ${JBOSS_HOME}/bin/standalone.sh $AS7_OPTS           ##  If running as user "jboss"  
26.         #start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --background --chuid jboss --exec ${JBOSS_HOME}/bin/standalone.sh $AS7_OPTS   ## Ubuntu  
27.         ${JBOSS_HOME}/bin/standalone.sh $AS7_OPTS &  
28.     ;;  
29.     stop)  
30.         echo "Stopping JBoss AS 7..."  
31.         #sudo -u jboss sh ${JBOSS_HOME}/bin/jboss-admin.sh --connect command=:shutdown            ##  If running as user "jboss"  
32.         #start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --background --chuid jboss --exec ${JBOSS_HOME}/bin/jboss-admin.sh -- --connect command=:shutdown     ## Ubuntu  
33.         ${JBOSS_HOME}/bin/jboss-cli.sh --connect command=:shutdown  
34.     ;;  
35.     *)  
36.         echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/jbossas7 {start|stop}"; exit 1;  
37.     ;;  
38. esac  
39.   
40. exit 0  

 

There are 3 variants of start/stop comand under "echo "Starting JBoss AS 7..."

• If you want to run JBoss AS 7 under different user, use the first line.
• On Ubuntu, use the second line.
• If you are okay with running it under root, use the script as is.

 

Then make the script executable:

1. chmod +x /etc/rc.d/init.d/jbossas7  

 

2) Create links to it from respective runlevel dirs:

1. chkconfig --add jbossas7  

 

...or the same, but manually:

 

1. ## Start when entering to multi-user mode.  
2. ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/jbossas7 /etc/rc3.d/S84jbossas7  
3. ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/jbossas7 /etc/rc5.d/S84jbossas7  
4. ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/jbossas7 /etc/rc4.d/S84jbossas7  
5.   
6. ## Kill on shutdown or when switching to single-user mode.  
7. ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/jbossas7 /etc/rc6.d/K15jbossas7  
8. ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/jbossas7 /etc/rc0.d/K15jbossas7  
9. ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/jbossas7 /etc/rc1.d/K15jbossas7  
10. ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/jbossas7 /etc/rc2.d/K15jbossas7  

 

For further info, see Wikipedia on Init or Red Hat docs on SysV.

3) Test

Try:

1. service jbossas7 start  
2. service jbossas7 stop  

You should see the server startup and shutdown log messages.
