Starting Tomcat on Linux as a Service??
Folks,
One can start Apache by placing the command in the rc.local
/usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl.sh start
but it appears that you can not do that with tomcat because of the
need for various environmental variables (JAVA_HOME ..etc..)
Any one have a suggestion on how to get both tomcat and apache to
start (tomcat first) when the server reboots..???
Thanks...
John...

Did you read my second email ?
The certificate that you generate ... is your certificate generation
application associating the host name and the certificate ? Lets say
the host tomcat is running on is my.webserver.com .... then is your
certificate generating app associating this with the certificate its
generating ?
Thanks.

Hello, thank you very much for your reply.
I think server.xml is irrelevant to my problem, since
I am able to run Tomcat SSL using the certificate that
is generated by keytool.

Re: Why can't I use my CA-generated certificate for Tomcat SSL?
Posted by Mark Liu <ma...@yahoo.com>.
I just gave it a test.
I have a working keystore on host A, and I copied that
keystore to host B. And it works for both. In other
words, I am able to launch Tomcat SSL with the same
keytool-generated certificate on 2 different hosts.
Any idea about how to run Tomcat SSL with my own
CA-generated certificate?

OK, are you suggesting that the certificate generated
by keytool associates the host name and the
certificate?

Why can't I use my CA-generated certificate for Tomcat SSL?
Posted by Mark Liu <ma...@yahoo.com>.
I know how to use keytool to generate a self-signed
certificate and run Tomcat with SSL.
I want to use a certificate that is generated by my
little Java program which is part of my Certification
Authority.
So I have my little Java program generate a X509
Certificate called cert4ca.cer.
Then I deletee the tomcat certificate in my keystore
and successfully imported cert4ca.cer into my keystore
as alias tomcat. See the attached file cert4ca.cer.
It's a valid one, otherwise, I would not have been
able to import it into my keystore.
After I launch tomcat, I can visit http://localhost,
but not https://localhost.
However, I am able to visit both http and https if I
use the certificate generated by keytool.
So, would you please give me a hint, how can I use the
certificate generated by my little Java program to run
tomcat with SSL?
Thanks a lot in advance.

Re: Starting Tomcat on Linux as a Service??
Posted by "John B. Moore" <jb...@microps.com>.
Jon,
Ok, making progress.. here is some info that might help others "at
my level"...<G> .. but I still have a loose end...<sigh>
What I did:
Tomcat was not starting so I attempted to run the same start
command from the commandline..
.. and got a pile of "permission denied"
.. I then added the "tomcat" user to the admin.. no help.. then to
the root group.. better but still joy.. I then realized that it was only
the "$CATALINA_HOME/logs" directory that was having problems so I then
changed the permissions on that directory.. (I had installed tomcat as
root... my bad, I guess..) adding "write" permissions to "others"
That got me "started" or so it seemed..
No error, but no joy.. What is strange is that if I try on the
commandline
/bin/su tomcat $CATALINA_HOME/bin/startup.sh
.. it still will not start Tomcat either.. only
$CATALINA_HOME/bin/startup.sh
...will start tomcat.. It appears that trying to run Tomcat under
the user "tomcat" will not work..???
...I then removed the "/bin/su tomcat" from the script and...no joy
either..
Obviously there is more to this that I understand...
Any thoughts on this mystery...??

Instead of rc.local, it would be more customary to use an initialization
script in /etc/init.d. Look in this path to find examples for other

Here is a script that will let you use Tomcat as a service.

If you save this as "tomcatd" in the /etc/init.d/ directory, you can
then do:
chkconfig --add tomcatd
Now, you can use the "Service" tool from the GUI to start/stop your
service PLUS assign it to start up at boot. Also, the way it starts now
is:
/sbin/service tomcat start
You will notice the "Usage" portion of the script. This will tell you
what parameters you can add:
/sbin/service tomcatd <parameter>
Hope this helps, Jeremy
P.S. - I got one for Apache also if you need it. Remember to change the
path to your Tomcat installaion and the catalina.sh.

Subject: Starting Tomcat on Linux as a Service??
Folks,
One can start Apache by placing the command in the rc.local
/usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl.sh start
but it appears that you can not do that with tomcat because of the
need for various environmental variables (JAVA_HOME ..etc..)
Any one have a suggestion on how to get both tomcat and apache to
start (tomcat first) when the server reboots..???
Thanks...
John...
