ApexNinjas | Start Java program as Linux daemon
Author: GEORGE BARA 1 comment(s) Category: OS & Web Servers Posted on: 16-02-2011 Use this script to run Java programs as daemons (services) on Linux Centos (or other Red Hat releases). This script originates from a script use to do the same thing in Linux Suse and was adapted for Centos by Joshua Davis. Save the code below in a sh file (Ex.: daemon.sh), set the variables at the beginning of the script. To start/stop the daemon using daemon.sh, just use:
./daemon.sh start
./daemon.sh stop
./daemon.sh status
