How to start tomcat at boot on 10.8

I have been trying for days to get Tomcat to start on system boot. I have it working fine as an launch daemon when I log on, but I want it to start when the system starts.  I have installed the plist to start tomcat in /System/Library, changed the ownership to root:wheel, ensured that the script it runs is accessible and workable, but no luck.  Where am I going wrong.

  • Starting Tomcat at boot

    Hi,
    Config : Linux, Tomcat, I'm looking for 2 elements :
    - How to start automatically Tomcat at boot ?
    - How to check periodically that Tomcat is running and, if not, start it ?
    Thank for all help.

    How did you install it? RPM for RedHad usually come with a startup script that is installed in /etc/init.d.
    If not, take a look at where your scripts are, and take one similar to your needs as a template.

  • Help! How to start windows in boot camp?

    I have read several posts on this but I still cannot seem to get it started. I recently bought a macbook with bootcamp set up with windows xp. I had vmware fusion on my computer to use windows but I uninstalled it because I cannot use it for the purpose of windows that I need. Now, I do not know how to start windows on my computer. I cannot use a virtual machine because my exam software that I use for school will not start up when using a virtual machine.
    I restart my computer and hold down the option key and the only hard drive that shows up is the Mac HD. The boot camp drive does not show up. So, if I cannot start windows that way...is there any other way???
    THANKS!

    I cannot use a virtual machine because my exam software that I use for school will not start up when using a virtual machine.
    It requires DirectX 9? Huh?
    I restart my computer and hold down the option key and the only hard drive that shows up is the Mac HD.
    That sounds like your computer came with VM Fusion, and was not set up with boot camp. Please prove me wrong.
    First, how many disk icons are on your Mac OS desktop? Is there just the Macintosh HD icon, or is there another disk icon labelled, say, "Untitled" or "Boot Camp".
    Second, open /Applications/Disk Utility. Select your hard drive (not the Macintosh HD volume, but the actual hard drive, just above the Macintosh HD volume). Then click the "partition tab". How many partitions do you have. Does it show one HFS+ Journaled volume, or more than one partition and of what types.
    Third, if you did see a second disk icon in step one, select it and hit CMD-I. What is its used and free space? Open it in Finder: is there a boot.ini file? A Windows folder?
    Fourth--I should have thought of this first, sorry--some MacBooks have a bug that Option doesn't let you select an OS. So open Apple > System Preferences > Startup Disk and see if there is a Windows there for you to select. If so, select it and "reboot now" to boot into Windows. To boot back into Mac OS, you can either use the option key, or use the boot camp system tray icon to select Mac OS as your startup disk.
    Finally, did your computer come with a Windows XP CD?

    what is to change to start tomcat from eclipse ???
    thanks

    i think the problem here is not your configuration so much as you already have a tomcat instance running. kill the first instance of tomcat and THEN try running from eclipse
    that said, if you truly want 2 instances of tomcat running, then i guess you'll have to change the port/config

  • [SOLVED] How to start pulseaudio on boot without a DE or WM? (XBMC)

    Hi Guys,
    I run XBMC without a desktop environment or Window Manager, it launches via my .xinitrc as below:
    exec /usr/bin/ck-launch-session /usr/bin/dbus-launch --exit-with-session /usr/bin/xbmc --standalone -fs
    I can use pulseaudio with xbmc if I run from an ssh session "/usr/bin/start-pulseaudio-x11" after xbmc has loaded up.
    My question is, how do I start this automatically? If I add /usr/bin/start-pulseaudio-x11 directly above the exec line in my .xinitrc XBMC seems to take a good deal longer to start.
    Any tips much appreciated.
    Last edited by adr3nal1n (2011-08-30 19:11:01)

    Thanks very much Vendion, I have tried as you suggested and it does work and XBMC loads up faster as a result of pulseaudio starting in the background. However this method leaves a defunct pulseaudio process after XBMC has started (along with the running pulseaudio processes). Is this normal when starting a process in the background from .xinitrc?
    Out of curiosity, I have also tried another approach. I #'ed out the "/usr/bin/start-pulseaudio-x11 &"entry in the .xinitrc and added "/usr/bin/start-pulseaudio-x11" (without the &) at the start of the /usr/bin/xbmc shell script that the exec line of the .xinitrc uses to launch xbmc and it loads just as fast as the suggested approach but minus the defunct pulseaudio process after xbmc starts. Weird, because if I try removing the & from the /usr/bin/start-pulseaudio-x11" entry in .xintrc pulseaudio seems to hang on startup and /var/log/everything.log shows console kit timeout errors.
    I am happy I have a fix for this now, I am just confused as to the behaviour encountered when trying to do this in the .xinitrc rather than editiing the xbmc launch script directly. Have you seen anything like this before?
    Thanks again for all your help on this.

  • How to start wlan0 on boot?

    Hi.
    I recently got my broadcom wireless card to work on my HP. It works fine, but every time i boot the system i got to start up my interface manually. First ifconfig wlan0 up then iwconfig wlan0 essid MyHomeNetwork, and finally dhcpcd wlan0. Is there a way to get this done on boot?

    There is an easier way you can do it in either /etc/rc.conf or /etc/conf.d/wireless.  Here are the instructions to do that:
    http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wir … .2Frc.conf
    I use this on my laptop and it works like a charm.  Also, there is a nice GUI tool called "wlassistant" (you have to run it as root) that depends on the network daemon, unlike the other GUI wireless connection managers.  Great if you are hopping from network to network frequently.

  • Starting Tomcat using jsvc and jpda

    This is mostly just a message for anyone else looking for an answer to how to start Tomcat as a daemon with webapp remote debugging enabled.
    There is a real lack of information on how jsvc works when starting Tomcat under *nix.  I'm using Solaris 10, but this should be very similar on most Linux systems.
    There is a simple shell script called tomcat in /etc/init.d that starts the cat as a daemon. The change needed to use remote debugging from Eclipse is to enable jpda. This is done by setting the CATALINA_OPTS to include the jpda settings.
    Here's the modified line in the script:
    CATALINA_OPTS="-Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=8000" If it worked you will see a line like "Listening for transport dt_socket at address: 8000" in your catalina.out. And now Eclipse can do remote debugging on port 8000.
    If you use the catalina.sh script to start the cat all you need is
    ./catalina.sh jpda startsince it defaults to these settings, that's where I found them.
    And of course there are dukes for suggestions.

  • Start tomcat with ovjm

    I have read all the help. I cannot figure out how to start tomcat such that it is using the ovjm. Please help.

    Hi All,
    I have changes the code to this:
    try
                Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
                Process proc = rt.exec("C:\\apache-tomcat-5.5.27\\bin\\startup.bat");
                InputStream stderr = proc.getErrorStream();

                BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(isr);
                String line = null;
                System.out.println("<ERROR>");
                Thread.sleep(3000);
                System.exit(0);
                while ( (line = br.readLine()) != null)
                    System.out.println(line);
                System.out.println("</ERROR>");
                int exitVal = proc.waitFor();
                System.out.println("Process exitValue: " + exitVal);
            } catch (Throwable t)
                t.printStackTrace();
              }What is happening is that this piece of code is running perfectly on my machine but not on production server. JDK, Apache Tomcat are of same version (same replica) and also I am the administrator of both machines. On production server this does not throw any exception also. The path to startup.bat is same in both my machine and production. If I go on Start > Run > C:\apache-tomcat-5.5.27\bin\startup.bat it works but not with Java Application.
    Completely perplexed. Please help me out for possible solution.
    Thanks and Regards,

  • Start XAMPP on boot

    Hi all,
    total newbie trying to figure out how to start xampp on boot. I understand that i need to place a script file in /etc/init.d/ but i can't seem to locate the file to put there, what does it look like or how do i create it?
    Thanks!

    Take a look at one of the (simpler) files in /etc/rc2.d or /etc/rc3.d (perhaps the one that starts SSH). Rename and modify it for your purposes.
    A file that is
    *) in one of those directories
    *) begins with the letter 'S'
    will be run by '/sbin/sh' with the word 'start' as the first argument.
    Pretty simple. If you just want it to start, it could just be a one liner. Most "startup" scripts tend to be slightly more elaborate, normally examining the first argument for 'start', 'stop' or in some cases 'restart' or 'status'.
    Standard is for the script to also be linked into /etc/init.d, but files in that directory are never executed directly by the system.

  • I bought windows 7 download online and started setting up boot camp but it says to insert the windows 7 disk so how do i do this?

    i bought windows 7 download online and started setting up boot camp but it says to insert the windows 7 disk so how do i do this?
    plz help me

    Hi Jaimie,
    To install Windows via Boot Camp you will need to have a copy of Windows on a physical dvd disc.
    If your purchase provides you with an ".ISO" file then you can simply burn this to a DVD and then follow the standard Boot Camp installation instructions.
    Boot Camp instructions: http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_10.7.pdf
    If you get stuck, just let me know the website you purchased Windows 7 from and I might be able to help you out.
    Cheers

  • How do I start service at boot?

    Hello,
      I am relatively new to arch, so I have played with it since .3 on and off but never as a server.  Right now I can start mysql, httpd and exim just fine, but they don't seem to be starting up at boot time.  How do I fix this?
    Thanks,
    mrjohnston

    Hi mrjohnston,
    You have to add an entry for each daemon in the DAEMONS array in the file /etc/rc.conf.  If you add "exim" (for example) to the DAEMONS line, the file /etc/rc.d/exim will be executed, and that should get it started at bootup.
    Cheers.
