ActiveMQ as Service in Linux

Can anyone share a documentation on how to make ActiveMQ run as a service in
Linux without using the Tanuki Software (wrapper)?

Thanks.

In a similar vein, does anyone have instructions on how to run activemq on
windows via the tankisoft wrapper (wrapper.tanukisoftware.org)?

Many thanks for these great instructions. I've added them to the wiki...

Re: ActiveMQ as Service in Linux

Posted by amerigo5 <am...@hotmail.com>.
Below are steps to make ActiveMQ a Linux Daemon on Red Hat 4 ES.

It's based on
http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/l-secjav.html

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Settings:

 - JAVA_HOME=/opt/java/jdk1.5.0_06 

 - ActiveMQ?=/opt/activemq/incubator-activemq-4.0
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Installation
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Java JDK

1. Install Sun Java JDK on /opt/java/ directory.

2. Create a shortcut to JDK directory:

# sudo ln -s /opt/java/jdk1.5.0_06 /opt/java/java
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ActiveMQ

1. Install ActiveMQ on /opt/activemq/ directory.

2. Make ActiveMQ startup and shutdown scripts executable:

# sudo chmod +x /opt/activemq/incubator-activemq-4.0/bin/activemq
# sudo chmod +x /opt/activemq/incubator-activemq-4.0/bin/shutdown
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ActiveMQ as Linux Daemon

1. Create activemq user:

# sudo /usr/sbin/useradd activemq

2. Create ActiveMQ startup script /home/activemq/activemqstart.sh with the
following content:

#!/bin/bash
export JDK_HOME=/opt/java/java
export JAVA_HOME=/opt/java/java
/opt/activemq/incubator-activemq-4.0/bin/activemq &

3. Make /home/activemq/activemqstart.sh executable:

# sudo chmod +x /home/activemq/activemqstart.sh

4. Create ActiveMQ shutdown script /home/activemq/activemqstop.sh with the
following content:

#!/bin/bash
export JDK_HOME=/opt/java/java
export JAVA_HOME=/opt/java/java
/opt/activemq/incubator-activemq-4.0/bin/shutdown

5. Make /home/activemq/activemqstop.sh executable:

# sudo chmod +x /home/activemq/activemqstop.sh

6. Create ActiveMQ Linux service configuration script /etc/init.d/activemq
with the following content:

#!/bin/bash
#
# activemq       Starts ActiveMQ.
#
#
# chkconfig: 345 88 12
# description: ActiveMQ is a JMS Messaging Queue Server.
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: $activemq
### END INIT INFO

# Source function library.
. /etc/init.d/functions

[ -f /home/activemq/activemqstart.sh ] || exit 0
[ -f /home/activemq/activemqstop.sh ] || exit 0

RETVAL=0

umask 077

start() {
        echo -n $"Starting ActiveMQ: "
        daemon /home/activemq/activemqstart.sh
        echo
        return $RETVAL
}
stop() {
        echo -n $"Shutting down ActiveMQ: "
        daemon su -c /home/activemq/activemqstop.sh activemq
        echo
        return $RETVAL
}
restart() {
        stop
        start
}
case "$1" in
  start)
        start
        ;;
  stop)
        stop
        ;;
  restart|reload)
        restart
        ;;
  *)
        echo $"Usage: $0 {start|stop|restart}"
        exit 1
esac

exit $?

7. Enable ActiveMQ service configuration as Linux Daemon:

# sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/activemq
# sudo /sbin/chkconfig --add activemq
# sudo /sbin/chkconfig activemq on

8. Restart the server.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note:  activemq-data is being created in "/" root directory.  I have to
explicitly set the activemq-data location in activemq.conf
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
