The zip based install of EAP ships with:
bin/init.d/jboss-as-domain.sh
bin/init.d/jboss-as-standalone.sh
which allows them to be run as services on a RHEL and similar *NIX systems.
The scripts use the "/etc/init.d/functions" library which bring "daemon" to start programs. In our case to start the domain/standalone.sh scripts.
The intention is that these start in the background, but this fails.
Reproduce:
- create a new OS user "jbossadm"
- unzip EAP in his home directory
- copy bin/init.d/jboss-as.conf to /etc/jboss-as/
configure it with:
JBOSS_HOME=/home/jbossadm/jboss-eap-6.4
JBOSS_USER=jbossas
JBOSS_CONSOLE_LOG=/home/jbossadm/console.log
- copy bin/init/jboss-as-domain.sh to /etc/init.d
- become su, and start with:
/etc/init.d/jboss-as-domain.sh start
-run: ps axfo pid,ppid,user,command | grep jboss

Expectation: "domain.sh" to become detached and have "1" as its parent.
ISSUE: line 94 is currently:
daemon --user $JBOSS_USER LAUNCH_JBOSS_IN_BACKGROUND=1 JBOSS_PIDFILE=$JBOSS_PIDFILE $JBOSS_SCRIPT --domain-config=$JBOSS_DOMAIN_CONFIG --host-config=$JBOSS_HOST_CONFIG 2>&1 >$JBOSS_CONSOLE_LOG &
FIX: should be:
daemon --user $JBOSS_USER LAUNCH_JBOSS_IN_BACKGROUND=1 JBOSS_PIDFILE=$JBOSS_PIDFILE "$JBOSS_SCRIPT --domain-config=$JBOSS_DOMAIN_CONFIG --host-config=$JBOSS_HOST_CONFIG &" 2>&1 >$JBOSS_CONSOLE_LOG
e.g. the "&" needs to be bundled with the actual script -> so add quotes and move the & insude the quotes.
The same is true for the "bin/init.djboss-as-standalone.sh" script:
line 90 should become:
daemon --user $JBOSS_USER LAUNCH_JBOSS_IN_BACKGROUND=1 JBOSS_PIDFILE=$JBOSS_PIDFILE "$JBOSS_SCRIPT -c $JBOSS_CONFIG &" > $JBOSS_CONSOLE_LOG 2>&1
Also: the same remark is valid for lines 96 respectively line 94 where "su" is used instead of "daemon" if "/etc/init.d/functions" is not available
