I have a shiny new xserve that I am trying to get JBoss to start up on when the system boots. I have created my startup script, but am wondering if anyone with more OS X - Server experience than myself would tell me if I am doing anything drastically wrong in my script.
note, this iteration does work (at least the server starts up as user jboss and every thing seems to work)
/Library/StartupItems/Jboss/JBoss
#!/bin/sh
. /etc/rc.common
StartService()
{
ConsoleMessage "Starting JBoss application server"
sudo -u jboss /Library/jboss/bin/run.sh > /dev/null &
}
StopService()
{
ConsoleMessage "Stopping JBoss application server"
sudo -u jboss /Library/jboss/bin/shutdown.sh -S > /dev/null
}
RestartService()
{
StopService
StartService
}
RunService "$1"
--eof--
and my StartupParameters.plist file is prety much a direct copy of others found in other startup scripts
/Library/StartupItems/JBoss/StartupParameters.plist
{
Description = "JBoss application server";
Provides = ("JBoss");
Requires = ("PostgreSQL");
Preference = "Late";
Messages =
{
start = "Starting JBoss";
stop = "Stopping JBoss";
};
}
--eof--
I forced the dependency on PostgreSQL since I use a PostgreSQL data source in my application.
So does anyone with MacOS X Server experience see anything that should be changed?
any feedback would be appreciated
