    JBoss run.conf and initial script

      Hello all,

       

      I have problem with starting JBoss server with jboss_init_redhat.sh. I think that I have correct configuration in init script. So problem is, that when I start jboss 4.2.2 GA with jboss_init_redhat.sh script, it ignore my settings in run.conf. I need to change JAVA_OPTS via run.conf.

       

      If I start jboss from command line like .../bin/run.sh -b my.host....  it starts correct and accept run.conf JAVA_OPTS.

       

      My run.conf looks:

      if [ "x$JAVA_OPTS" = "x" ]; then
         JAVA_OPTS="-Xms1024m -Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=192m -Dsun.rmi.dgc.client.gcInterval=3600000 -Dsun.rmi.dgc.server.gcInterval=3600000"
      fi

       

      In jboss_init_redhat.sh is commands like:

      JBOSS_HOST=${JBOSS_HOST:-"192.168.1.3"}

      JBOSS_BIND_ADDR=${JBOSS_HOST:+"-b $JBOSS_HOST"}

      JBOSS_CONF=${JBOSS_CONF:-"default"}

      JBOSSSH=${JBOSSSH:-"$JBOSS_HOME/bin/run.sh -c $JBOSS_CONF $JBOSS_BIND_ADDR"}

      JBOSS_CMD_START="cd $JBOSS_HOME/bin; $JBOSSSH"

       

      And finally default look of run.sh in part of configuration file:

      # Read an optional running configuration file
      if [ "x$RUN_CONF" = "x" ]; then
          RUN_CONF="$DIRNAME/run.conf"
      fi
      if [ -r "$RUN_CONF" ]; then
          . "$RUN_CONF"
      fi

       

       

      When I start it from jboss_init_redhat.sh (it ignores run.conf -> Xms1024m,Xmx1024m and MaxPermSize) :

      508       9479  9458 17 18:27 ?        00:00:38 /opt/java/bin/java -Dprogram.name=run.sh -server -Xms512m -Xmx512m -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true -Djava.endorsed.dirs=/opt/jboss/lib/endorsed -classpath /opt/jboss/bin/run.jar:/opt/java/lib/tools.jar org.jboss.Main -c default -b 192.168.1.3

       

      When I start it from jboss like    run.sh -b my.host, it reads run.conf and apply it:

      So do you have any idea, how to force jboss to use run.conf?

       

      Thank you very much,

          Do you by any chance have a run.conf in JBOSS_HOME/server/< servername>/ folder? And please post the exact output that you see on the console (including the echo statements) when you start the server using the jboss_init_redhat.sh script.

              Hello guys,


              I don't know why (I didn't read all documentation for jboss), for this time, it helps me, when a start jboss with jboss user, and jdk folder owns jboss too.

              When my problem starts, the jdk folder owns root

              After change permissions to jboss on jdk folder, it start works, and run.conf was accepted

               

               

              Sorry Lines above are not exactly truth. I tested it again and when i start scrip as root and in script JBOSS_USER=root, than it works (run.conf is accepted), but then when I start it as  JBOSS_USER=jboss, run.conf is ignored.... 

               

              Thank you,

                OK, for this time, problem solved.

                 

                This helps me in run.conf

                unset JAVA_OPTS
                if [ "x$JAVA_OPTS" = "x" ]; then
                   JAVA_OPTS="-server -Xms1024m -Xmx1024m -XX:PermSize=192m -XX:MaxPermSize=192m -Dsun.rmi.dgc.client.gcInterval=3600000 -Dsun.rmi.dgc.server.gcInterval=3600000"
                fi

                 

                Why?  I don't know, but after start and stop jboss server, the user, whos jboss going on behalf JBOSS_USER=${JBOSS_USER:-"jboss"}, has after stop jboss in environment this settings:

                 

                pc$ echo $JAVA_OPTS

                -Xms512m -Xmx512m

                 

                so in next start of Jboss, the condition in run.conf

                if [ "x$JAVA_OPTS" = "x" ]; then ....      was false  "x-Xms512m -Xmx512m" = "x"  , so if it was false, my JAVA_OPTS was not loaded...

                 

                so clean the JAVA_OPTS variable before condition helps to me

                 

                Thanks all,
