Linux Create Service

1. create startup.sh and shutdown.sh for program

Example:

/opt/Ping/startup.sh

#!/bin/bash

if [ -f /var/run/PingServer.pid ]; then

        exit;

else

        export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/Ping/PingServerApp_lib

        cd /opt/Ping

        nohup java -jar /opt/Ping/PingServerApp.jar &

        echo $! > /var/run/PingServer.pid

fi

/opt/Ping/shutdown.sh

#!/bin/bash

PID=$(cat /var/run/PingServer.pid)

kill -9 ${PID}

rm -rf /var/run/PingServer.pid

2. Create file /etc/rc.d/init.d/pingserver

#!/bin/bash

#

# chkconfig: 35 66 34

# description:

#

. /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions

WORK_DIR=/opt/Ping

case "$1" in

  start)

        cd ${WORK_DIR};

        ./startup.sh;

        ;;

  stop)

        cd ${WORK_DIR};

        ./shutdown.sh;

        ;;

  restart)

        cd ${WORK_DIR};

        ./shutdown.sh;

        ./startup.sh

        ;;

  *)

        echo $"Usage: $0 {start|stop|restart}"

        exit 2

esac

exit $RETVAL

3. create the application as linux service 

chkconfig --add pingserver

4. make automatically start

chkconfig pingserver on
