1. Re: installing jboss AS 4.2 as a service in Debian lenny
peterj Mar 12, 2008 5:47 PM (in response to pcoll)Does your startup script redirect the console log to a file? If so, post that. If not, post the last 50 or so lines from server/xxx/log/server.log.
Also, have you tried running the init script manually using the root account? And have you tried manually running jbossas using the account specified in the init script?
I have jbossas running as a service on my ubuntu box, so I know it should run just the same under debian. -

peterj Mar 13, 2008 12:03 PM (in response to pcoll)First, let's make sure that the java running is what you think it is. Enter (as root):
ps -C java -f > ps.out
and post the contents of ps.out.
Is there a server/default/log/boot.log file? -

and when i start linux, it attempts to start jboss, but i get the following
/etc/init.d/rc:line 78:/etc/rc2.d/S20jboss: Permission denied
i created the jboss user, i set the permission of tje jbossAs folder to the jboss user, still doesnt work.. -
5. Re: installing jboss AS 4.2 as a service in Debian lenny
peterj Mar 18, 2008 1:42 PM (in response to pcoll)With the process having run for over a minute, I would have expected to see either server.log or boot.log. Was the server/xxx/log directory created? If not, then there are still some permission issues, though from the script you posted earlier it should be running as root. It is, the ps confirms it.

6. Re: installing jboss AS 4.2 as a service in Debian lenny
pcoll Mar 18, 2008 3:29 PM (in response to pcoll)its workiing.. i changed the JBOSS_USER variable in the init.d script from jboss to RUNASIS...
is there a problem if a leave it with RUNASIS??
and another question..do you know how to change o modify the default page of jboss, the one that loads http://localhost:8080
thanks a lot -
7. Re: installing jboss AS 4.2 as a service in Debian lenny
peterj Mar 18, 2008 4:12 PM (in response to pcoll)What do you mean you changed it from jboss to RUNASIS? The script you posted has RUNASIS, not jboss, and the app server is running as root. Did you create a 'jboss' user account and make that account the owner of /usr/local/jboss-4.2.2.GA?
You really should not let the app server run as root, that leaves a nice big security hole.
Regarding the default page, see http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=104203 -

pcoll Mar 18, 2008 4:40 PM (in response to pcoll)sorry my mistake...
i created the user jboss with
#adduser jboss and enter the password for that user.
i made jboss the owner of /usr/local/jboss-4.2.2.GA with
#chown -R jboss:jboss jboss-4.2.2.GA
if a change from RUNASIS to jboss as the user, it wont start -
