Proper way to set up tomcat 8.5 (autostart and service setup)
All,
I just installed Tomcat 8.5 on RedHat.
The previous tomcat6 install was setup so that I could use the linux service command to start and stop.
I'd like to take that feature away from the tomcat6 install and add it for the new tomcat85 install.
I'd also like for tomcat85 to be able to autostart upon reboots.
Lastly, I'd like the logs to go to /var/log/tomcat8 if possible.
Can anyone point me to the correct way to accomplish these requirements?
Thanks in advance for your cooperation.
... Joel

Which flavor?
Are you using the package-managed version, or one directly from ASF?
The yum package-maintainer for Tomcat is a member of this list, so he
should be able to weigh-in on any problems you may be having with it.
In the past, one could rely on package-managed versions of Tomcat to
be hideously out of date and a pain in the neck to use, but AIUI, the
current yum packages for Tomcat 8.5 and Tomcat 9 are fairly up-to-date
and will probably work the way you want the to in the "Red Hat Way".

It's easier for you because you're more familiar with the init scripts, but
tying a modern system into an older one just to make it easy is a hack IMO,
and while it can be OK under some circumstances when maintaining an older
system, I would advise strongly against that when setting up a new system.

Not having an issue, but if I upgrade I will it seems .. booooo!
init.d is so engraved in my neural patterns it will be a shame to have
such a useless deep groove.
I hate the names, too .. that's what happens when you give marketing
people too much leash. Not only do they seem to forget how to math,
they forget how to number.

RE: Proper way to set up tomcat 8.5 (autostart and service setup)
Posted by Joel Saunders <Jo...@zones.com>.
Unfortunately, I inherited this system from someone who hacked it together before he left, so I'm just trying to use a quick/minimal approach.
I think that tomcat6 was setup with the init.d approach and would like to keep v8 similar if at all possible.
I'm not bad with scripting and init stuff, but not that strong as a Linux Admin and all of the options available to Linux Admin/developers.
I do appreciate all of your comments though, but I just want something easy to cut and paste at this time so I can be done with this and get back to my other (also demanding) projects.
Thanks,,
Joel

It can be enabled on "Wheezy" (Debian 7, c. 2013, these names only add to
the confusion, I had to look it up), but that was the last Debian version
to use init.d. Debian 8 (Jessie) already came with systemd in 2015 [1].

Most systemd-based systems still have scripts in /etc/init.d and they
just point to the systemd-esque scripts/binaries. So if, like me, your
fingers automatically type "sudo /etc/init.d/servicename [action]",
they generally still all work.
systemd makes a great operating system, but only if you install all of
its packages and it completely replaces the kernel.

I'm using init.d and a custom script complete with single command
deploy using git hooks.
git push <remote> master pushes, builds, and bounces Tomcat. I like
it very much .. building and deploying can be such a pain.
Is systemd something that is available on debian wheezy?
Is init.d going out of style?
I've been using it since .. I can't even remember. 1998 maybe on Fedora?

I simply tie systemd with the init script. Our servers host around 20-30
tomcat instances. I found it easier do it this way.

On modern Linux systems you should really use systemd instead of the old
init scripts.
I've written in the past a script that can be used as a systemd template,
so it allowed for multiple services to be run on different ports with
different settings. I can't find it easily ATM though.
I think that it'd be good if Tomcat came with such a script so that it's
easy to install as a systemd service.

Setup an init script.
This is similar to how I do it.
