Starting tomcat from init scripts (HP/UX)
Hi,
The above subject is based on the exact same topic I found in the archives
from back in January, but no solution was ever posted. We are having the
exact same problem that Pascal was having. We are trying to start tomcat
from an init script at boot time. I have the needed variables in the init
script, and the init script calls catalina.sh directly. Below is a copy of
my script. I have used the script to stop and start tomcat manually without
a problem. However, when Tomcat tries to start at boot time the run control
information states that it can't start as root, and it is going to try as
bin, but it is unsuccessful. Does anybody know why it wouldn't be able to
start as root? What can I do to fix this?
Init script:
-------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh
# Start/Stop for Tomcat Java Servlet Container
#
CATALINA_HOME="/bto/appl/apache/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.4"
export CATALINA_HOME
JAVA_HOME="/opt/java1.4"
export JAVA_HOME
CLASSPATH="/bto/appl/apache/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.4/common/lib/servlet.jar:/opt
/java1.4/jre/lib/rt.jar:/opt/java1.4/lib/tools.jar:/opt/java1.4/lib/dt.jar:/

export CLASSPATH
case $1 in
'start')
/bto/appl/apache/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.4/bin/catalina.sh start
>> /bto/appl/apache/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.4/logs/bootlogstart.txt 2>&1 &
;;
'stop')
/bto/appl/apache/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.4/bin/catalina.sh stop
>> /bto/appl/apache/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.4/logs/bootlogstop.txt 2>&1 &
;;
esac
----------------------------------------------------------------
Thank you for any help you can offer.

Hi,
It's been a while since I tinkered with HP/UX but it seems to me that you
can set all your varibles in the default tomcat start scripts and then
call the default startup.sh and shutdown.sh.

Put your startup wrapper in inittab. (Our wrapper was a copy and tweak of
some other script also called from initab )
