I have created a VM instance on Google Cloud Ploutform, Compute engine. Installed Ubunutu 18.04 LTS, Java JDK, Maven and Jetty. Also installed Tomcat, but not using that at the mo.
I set the JAVA_HOME to the JDK location and added it to /etc/enviroment and confirmed this with source /etc/enviroment. Then I CD into my app run mnv jetty:run and the app comes up on port 8888 and everything works great.
Im using the GCE Browser SSH terminal and I have two problems. When I close my laptop or shut the browser the app terminates and goes down. So I have to SSH back into GCE and run the above command but firstly it tells me that my java home is pointing to jre not JDK. Running echo JAVA_HOME shows its correct, so I need to run source /etc/environment before mvn jetty:run each time I log in.
1, How do I make the app stay open so its not reliant on a open terminal on my PC (happy to leave one open and running on the machine just not sure how to do this).
2, Why do I have to run a source each time I log in? Surely having it set in the environment file is enough?
Im a bit of a newb on java and linux so any help/advice appreciated.

You can run your app in the background so that even if you close the
terminal it will not affect the java process. You can use this
command
$ nohup mvn jetty:run &
You logs will be redirected to a file called nohup.out in the same directory
For setting the env variables there is one file called /etc/profile.
Just mention the details in this file and login/logout, it will be
permanent.

I recently changed my dedicated server and since then the script I use to restart my minecraft server isn't working anymore.
I can call the script using sh start.sh and my server starts, however when I use the in-game /restart command or when I instruct the server to restart from my plugin, the server closes and never restarts.
Here is the content of my start.sh
screen -dmS mc_hub1 java -jar -Xmx2048M -DIReallyKnowWhatIAmDoingISwear server.jar
Unless I'm running the script from the command-line, nothing happens, the screen isn't even created.
The issue seems to be originating from screen -dmS mc_hub1 because the restart instruction works if I remove it, actually it feels like I can't use anything related to screens from Java but it used to work so I'm a bit lost.
The dedicated server on which everything works is running Debian 9.9, Screen 4.05.00 and the new one is running Debian 9.11 and Screen 4.05.00.
I tried to add the -L option to enable logging but it doesn't even create the file,
Everything in the folder has read and execute permissions,
I tried to call the script from my plugin using java.lang.ProcessBuilder, no exception but still no result
ProcessBuilder pb = new ProcessBuilder("start.sh");
pb.directory(new File("/home/minecraft/uhc/"));
pb.start();
Java version doesn't seem to be causing the problem (I tested with the latest one and the one from my first dedicated server which is older)
Any help would be appreciated, thanks
Built a new Windows Server 2016 to act as a target for jenkins orchestrated builds. We are not supposed to use oracle java anymore, so I got coretta openJDK. OpenJDK does not support javaws any more. The executable does not ship with it. I have seen some scripted workarounds, but they do not work and are poorly written to boot.
What are we supposed to use to launch slave agents on Windows machines?
There are several ways to implement this but since this is a windows server you can follow steps on https://github.com/kohsuke/winsw/blob/master/doc/installation.md#winsw-installation-guide to install jenkins slave as service without javaws.
I believe #Mike was referring to: Install Slave as a Windows service (cmd version), which does not need JNLP/javaws.
OR, under Jenkins 2 (we are using 2.121.1 plus WMI Windows Agents (aka windows-slaves:1.4), there is now an option to "Let Jenkins control this Windows slave as a Windows service", essentially in the same fashion as a Linux node.
You must have an Admin account (and password). We had to follow the guidance to edit registry when "Windows agents fail to start via DCOM" (Guidance is for Server 2012) to remotely manage the service. So far, seems to be working OK, YMMV. So far, seems to be working OK, no "subtle probelms"; YMMV.
For entries:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Wow6432Node\CLSID{72C24DD5-D70A-438B-8A42-98424B88AFB8}
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID{76A64158-CB41-11D1-8B02-00600806D9B6}
(There are several matches for the keys; just change the two locations indicated)
Launch 'regedit' (as Administrator)
Find (Ctrl+F) the following registry key: "{72C24DD5-D70A-438B-8A42-98424B88AFB8}" in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Wow6432Node\CLSID\
Right click and select 'Permissions'
Change owner to administrators group (Advanced...).
Change permissions for administrators group. Grant Full Control.
Change owner back to TrustedInstaller (user is "NT Service\TrustedInstaller" on local machine)
Repeat the steps 1-6 for HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID{76A64158-CB41-11D1-8B02-00600806D9B6}
Restart Remote Registry Service (Administrative Tools / Services)
For me the easiest and best working solution to launch Windows Jenkins Agents without JNLP was to run in the command prompt java -jar agent.jar ... command. The command parameters should be grabbed from the url of the agent:
http://your_jenkins_url/computer/your_agent_name_or_ip/
I downloaded the agent.jar on my PC, moved it to a desired directory, launched the Command Prompt from the dir where the agent.jar was moved and executed the proposed command with the appropriate parameters.
In my case:
java -jar agent.jar -jnlpUrl http://your_jenkins_url/computer/your_agent_name_or_ip/slave-agent.jnlp -secret 76986574e97c2b635c7076740dc93326eaaf5a3ad30573144915489a1ccfee44 -workDir "D:\jenkins"
This was one of the proposed approaches in the docs here - https://www.jenkins.io/doc/administration/requirements/upgrade-java-guidelines/
Java Web Start Java Web Start has been removed in Java 11. When a
Jenkins controller is running on Java 11, the Java Web Start button
will no longer appear in the Web UI. Agents for a Java 11 Jenkins
server can’t be launched from a *.jnlp file downloaded to a web
browser.
There are no plans to replace this functionality. Connect agents to
Jenkins on Java 11 with plugins like SSH Build Agents Plugin, with
operating system command line calls to java -jar agent.jar, or by
using containers.
I cannot get Apache Tomcat to start. I followed the instructions for installing Tomcat on the Mac found at https://www.dev2qa.com/how-to-install-tomcat-in-macos/.
After I type the command to start Tomcat, the response from the command line is that Tomcat has started.
However, when I go to the browser, the default page is not showing up. I further checked to see if the port was being used by using the command
lsof -nP -i4TCP:8080 | grep LISTEN
which showed that no program is using the port. I also read the 'RUNNING.txt' that instructed me on setting the environmental variables, which I did. Any suggestions on why Tomcat is not starting up.
I'm using jdk 1.8.0_202 and Apache Tomcat 9.0.14 that is running of Mac OS High Sierra.
BatChmod
After downloading a fresh version of Tomcat, I use the BatChmod app to alter the file permissions. Tomcat will not launch properly without altering the permissions.
I do not know the command-line equivalent, but here is a screenshot of the settings I have used for years successfully.
Plea for help
If anyone can write the equivalent as a shell script for macOS, please post!
Even better, explain how to wrap such a script as an AppleScript for drag-and-drop execution in Finder.
The problem turned out to be a permissions problem. When I installed Tomcat, I put the folder in the '/Library/Tomcat' directory. Even though the Tomcat files were changed to be executable, the user and group ownership remained the same. To get Tomcat to run, I moved the directory to 'Users/MyUserName/Tomcat'. Once I did that, the default Tomcat page ran.
I want to deploy a a project to ec2. It was modify in Intellij which used MAVEN. It work perfect in Intellij. Below is the configuration of Intellij.
I have tried command line like java, javac. These kind of comment lines are all failed. I am wondering there must some way to convert Intellij configuration to command lines. I was relying too much on IDE. XD. Now I am regreted.
EC2 is the amazon cloud service for instances. If you aren't very experienced with it - the easiest you can do is to hire a machine with your fav operating system - for example Windows and use remote desktop to log in it and just do your normal IDE setup and run your app. You will have your app running on your instance and it will be working, even it is done the hard way. I will get downvotes for that, but it will work as a Swiss watch.
It depends from the kind of EC2 instance you're using.
For me would be simpler if it was a Linux instance.
I'll connect via ssh and git clone my project there from my bitbucket/github repository.
Then I'll use Maven, and there are many different options to run your project with Maven.
As suggested in the comments you could use the exec plugin.
But even in this way you'll have a list of problems to overcame.
For example your linux instance does not came with an preinstalled Java Runtime.
You have to install at least Java and Maven (choose ubuntu distro, so you can do easily with a package manager like apt-get).
Or, for example, another not easy task is connect via ssh to a Linux instance.
AWS generates a key.pem file that you have to use in order to successfully connect to your instance.
ssh -i .ssh/your-key-file.pem username#your-ec2-instance-address
And again, AWS does not tell you the name of the default user you must use to connect to your EC2 instance (if you choose ubuntu distro the username is ubuntu).
And again, when you save your-key-file.pem in your computer it must have the right permission
-rw-------# 1 freedev staff 1692 Apr 21 09:46 /Users/freedev/.ssh/your-key-file.pem
or your ssh client wont read it.
...looking back it was really a long way make a deploy on a EC2 instance.
I have solved it by myself.
Use mvn package to generated jar file for maven project.
nohup java xx.jar debug.xml & use this to run jar in shell. By using this command line, when exit (abort remote connection), the process / command will not get killed.
Command line jcmd is used to check running process pid.
Hi i'm using Apache Tomcat 7,with jdk 1.7 in windows 8. and i have installed tomcat successfully in windows 8,now i'm going hit URL in browser like"localhost:8080" it's work fine,after i open eclipse created web-application & i configured tomcat with that web-application,now i try to restart i'm getting error like!!
so for that,i have stopped tomcat in services(task-manger-service).now it will work fine(it get restarted in eclipse and works fine). when i hit URL in browser like"localhost:8080" i' getting error like ! and more i have added java_home,Catalina_home and also path.
can any one help me out it should work in both eclipse & browser?
First do
netstat -a -b -o
and see if ports that are configured in Eclipse Tomcat are free. If they are not free kill that process
taskkill /PID <pid>
Use /F flag if needed. You should get PID fro, netstat command. You should get Eclipse tomcat ports from Server tab of JavaEE perspective
Then start your tomcat.
PS : If you are getting 404 either you are entering incorrect URL or server is not up in the first place. In any case check the logs if you are getting 404.
Follow the below steps
Right click on your eclipse project
Select Refresh
Click the Run icon
It is not straight forward when you invoke Tomcat from within Eclipse. Please read the FAQ section at https://wiki.eclipse.org/WTP_Tomcat_FAQ
It explains how if you start Tomcat from within Eclipse, the binaries of original directories of Tomcat are used, but the web apps etc are stored separately in the Eclipse Workspace.
