I need to restart tomcat service from a webapp running on this tomcat. So I'm trying to execute script that stops tomcat service, and then starts it:
echo "before stop" >> textfile.txt
NET STOP "Tomcat7"
:loop
timeout 3
SC query Tomcat7 | FIND "STATE" | FIND "RUNNING" > NUL
IF ERRORLEVEL 1 (
goto start
) ELSE (
goto loop
)
:start
NET START "Tomcat7"
Java code:
String command = "C:\\Tomcat 7.0\\bin\\restart.bat";
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command);
Tomcat is stopped, but not started.
If I run this batch from command line, it works properly.
thank you for your time
This worked:
String fileName = "C:\\Tomcat 7.0\\bin\\restart.bat";
String[] commands = {"cmd", "/c", "start", "\"DummyTitle\"",fileName};
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(commands);

What you are asking is not exactly safe and possible but do take a look at Tomcat manager API that allows you to programmatically manipulate Tomcat deployment and instance:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/api/index.html
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/api/org/apache/catalina/manager/host/HostManagerServlet.html
Agree with Edmon.
Tomcat is a provider of containers. Each container should act independently of each other, even if they call the services another provides. This should all be done via RMI or alike.
Like Edmon also suggests, you could call using the API, but again... sounds bad. Instead, question why it needs to restart. Then, if there's no work around, use the Tomcat Manager.

I try to get a Newrelic java agent to run in a docker container to monitor a HiveMetaStore server running in the docker container.
In order to get the Newrelic agent started during the startup of the JVM I have to pass-javaagent /path/to/newrelic.jar flag to the JVM.
I tried:
hive --service metastore -javaagent /path/to/newrelic.jar
This failed with "Unrecognized Option" in the HiveMetaStore server code, where it should not have ended up at all.
The hive script invokes the bin/ext/metastore.sh script which in turn invokes
exec $HADOOP jar $JAR $CLASS "$#"
So I tried to patch this invocation:
exec $HADOOP -javaagent /path/to/newrelic.jar jar $JAR $CLASS "$#"
This failed as well.
Then I took a deeper look at the hadoop script. Finally function hadoop_java_exec in libexec//hadoop_functions.sh invokes:
exec "${JAVA}" "-Dproc_${command}" ${HADOOP_OPTS} "${class}" "$#"
So I patched this code:
exec "${JAVA}" "-javaagent /path/to/newrelic.jar" "-Dproc_${command}" ${HADOOP_OPTS} "${class}" "$#"
This again failed.
Last but not least I recognized that one can pass java properties via HADOOP _OPTS (in libexec/hadoop_functions.sh):
function hadoop_finalize_hadoop_opts
{
hadoop_translate_cygwin_path HADOOP_LOG_DIR
hadoop_add_param HADOOP_OPTS hadoop.log.dir "-Dhadoop.log.dir=${HADOOP_LOG_DIR}"
hadoop_add_param HADOOP_OPTS hadoop.log.file "-Dhadoop.log.file=${HADOOP_LOGFILE}"
…
}
But I could not figure out how to pass -javaagent:/path/to/newrelic.jar using this mechanism.
Is anyone out there who has tried this before and can help with that ?
My apology if this is a stupid question. Thanks upfront, Ute
function hadoop_finalize_hadoop_opts
{
hadoop_translate_cygwin_path HADOOP_LOG_DIR
hadoop_add_param HADOOP_OPTS hadoop.log.dir "-Dhadoop.log.dir=${HADOOP_LOG_DIR}"
hadoop_add_param HADOOP_OPTS hadoop.log.file "-Dhadoop.log.file=${HADOOP_LOGFILE}"
…
hadoop_add _param HADOOP_OPTS java.javaagent -javaagent:${NEWRELIC_AGENT_HOME}\/newrelic.jar
}
Adding the last statement to got the agent started. I see in the container:
/usr/lib/jvm/default-jvm/bin/java -Dproc_jar -Dproc_metastore , … , NullAppender - javaagent:/opt/newrelic-agent-5.10.0/newrelic.jar org.apache.hadoop.util.RunJar /opt/apache-hive-3.1.2-bin/lib/hive-metastore-3.1.2.jar org.apache.hadoop.hive.metastore.HiveMetaStore
I don't understand the "NullAppender" yet but at least the agent seems to be running now.
I need to restart the tomcat from Java code.
For eg, if a query is not executed for a certain time Period then it will restart the tomcat automatically.
I have tried the following shutdown and startup code, but when we shutdown the tomcat then the java code will not run and tomcat not started.
Note :- I am running this code from a application and restarting the same tomact which the same application is using.
Following the code
try {
PreparedStatement.setQueryTimeout(10);
rs = PreparedStatement.executeQuery();
} catch (SQLException ex) {
System.out.println("IN CATCH BLOCK FOR THE REFRESH INVOICE");
String shutcommand = "killall java";
Process shutchild = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(shutcommand);
System.out.println("JAVA PROCESS KILLED");
String locationCommand = "cd /root/cluster/tomcat6/bin";
Process locationChild = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(locationCommand);
String strtcommand = "./startup.sh";
Process strtchild = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(strtcommand);
}
Killing tomcat after SQLException this is not good idea to handle this exception. Probably the problem is on database site.
But if you are sure, that it is what you need you can kill this java proces in this section, but to run tomcat you should use for example bash and cron. Why? Beacues after killing your executing code will stop, so you don't achieve the line to start tomcat.
How to check tomcat: Is Tomcat running?
TL;DR
File binaryDir = new File(System.getProperty("catalina.home") + File.separator + "bin");
String restartCommand = "\"shutdown.bat & ping 0.0.0.0 -n 4 & C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\net start Tomcat8\"";
new ProcessBuilder("cmd", "/c", restartCommand).directory(binaryDir).start();
Survive
Creating new process will survive JVM shutdown. If you combine commands in one line
it should work fine according to my tests and this.
shutdown.bat
You need to use shutdown.bat instead stopping windows service because it often fails on Windows with message Cannot stop service Apache Tomcat...
ping 0.0.0.0 -n 4
You need to wait some time after shutdown otherwise you will get Service is already starting. Try again later error message. Also note I use ping instead timeout because it causes problems on some systems.
C:\WINDOWS\system32\net start Tomcat8
I'm starting windows service because invoking startup.bat won't work for me. Also remember to replace Tomcat8 if you using different tomcat or custom service name for example Tomcat7
Redirect I/O
Don't redirect input or output of process instance or command will shutdown with JVM, and Tomcat won't start.
You can execute this native command using java
String command = "c:\program files\tomcat\bin\startup.bat";//for linux use .sh
Process child = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command);
You should consider using ProcessBuilder instead of Runtime exec. Also, you should split all the arguments when you want to execute a command.
I suggest this :
ProcessBuilder shutcommand = new ProcessBuilder("killall", "java");
Process shutchild = shutcommand.start();
System.out.println("JAVA PROCESS KILLED");
ProcessBuilder strtcommand = new ProcessBuilder("/root/cluster/tomcat6/bin/startup.sh", "java");
Process strtchild = strtcommand.start();
I am trying to create a windows service for Apache tomcat 7.0.45.
( in windows version 7)
I executed this :
C:/tomcat7/bin> service install Mytomcat7
Windows service has been created. but it wont start and throws "specific server error code 4".
Can you please help with the steps to create windows service.
I had the same problem!
Found out, that the service.bat didn't configure the service the right way. If you enable the logging from your service starter:
Then you'll see in your loggs something like:
[2014-02-19 16:40:35] [error] ( javajni.c:863 ) [ 2636] FindClass org/apache/catalina/startup/Bootstrap failed
[2014-02-19 16:40:35] [debug] ( javajni.c:964 ) [ 2636] Java Worker thread finished org/apache/catalina/startup/Bootstrap:main with status=3
[2014-02-19 16:40:35] [error] ( prunsrv.c:1183) [ 5000] Failed to start Java
[2014-02-19 16:40:35] [error] ( prunsrv.c:1536) [ 5000] ServiceStart returned 4
You'll notice that there is some classpath problem with the starter. In fact that's the problem! Your service.bat didn't configure the service the right way:
Note: You can also choose "Use default" above "Java Virtual Machine" to use whatever JVM is defined in JAVA_HOME
You'll need to set the classpath correctly:
c:\webclient\apache-tomcat\bin\tomcat-juli.jar;c:\webclient\apache-tomcat\bin\tomcat-juli.jar;c:\webclient\apache-tomcat\bin\bootstrap.jar
In my case i "installed" tomcat at: c:\webclient\apache-tomcat replace that part with yours. In my case not even the Java VM was set.. I'm not shure whether this is a problem with the current versions of tomcat (and it's service.bat), or with some sort of permission problem on the windows server itself..
To solve this error perform the following steps:
Run the tomcat7w.exe monitor application found in <TOMCAT_HOME>/bin.Tomcat7w is a GUI application for monitoring and configuring Tomcat services. If you named your service Mytomcat7 you will need to rename this file to Mytomcat7.exe before running it
In the "Startup" tab change the value of "Mode" from jvm to Java
Do the same in the "Shutdown" tab
The easiest way to setup a tomcat Windows service is to use the Tomcat Windows Service Installer found on the same page as tomcat downloads.
http://tomcat.apache.org/download-70.cgi
However, if you are unable to use this installer. Then you can as you have try the above. The service created 'Mytomcat7' can be managed by the tomcat7w.exe file, after you rename it to 'Mytomcat7w.exe'.
Run the renamed file and you will be able to see all options for the service. The error you are seeing is likely related to an invalid JVM location or JVM mode not set to auto.
Details of settings found here:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/windows-service-howto.html
I would just use the installer, it will make your life easier.

I have PHP and the PHP/Java bridge set up on Windows and Tomcat 7.0. All is OK there.
However, I am trying to write a php file with java calls to connect to my Weblogic server installed on my Windows 7 machine to play around with adding/deleting users/groups etc.
This is what I followed: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E13222_01/wls/docs90/jmx/accessWLS.html I also looked at this one http://weblogic-wonders.com/weblogic/2009/10/11/creating-users-in-weblogic-server-embedded-ldap-programatically/ (but for the second one I get an error on the java:comp/env/jmx/runtime line)
However, I cannot get my set up to recognize "t3" protocols to connect to my weblogic. the weird thing is I can connect via a t3 protocol using jython in a separate standalone script and to the console that way.
There is a section in first link above to make sure that wljmxclient.jar is added to the classpath. I set up a classpath to add that. I even use PHP to exec Weblogic's setWLSenv.cmd right before the connection to my Weblogic server is made to set my classpath . . . it shows the jar file in question being added. Still won't work. I then copied the jar file to the JavaBirde/WEB-INF/lib folder. Still wont' work.
I did try IIOP protocol but then I started down an new path of errors where "not bound in this context" was indicated. I tried switching between the 3 Mservers mentioned in the Oracle doc link above. No luck there either.
I see that others have run into this "t3 protocol not supported" message but I don't see any solutions.
Here is my code:
<?php
require_once("java/Java.inc");
$output=exec("C:\Oracle\Middleware\wlserver_12.1\server\bin\setWLSenv.cmd");
$protocol = "t3";
$hostname = "localhost";
$port="7001";
$jndiroot="/jndi/";
$mserver="weblogic.management.mbeanservers.domainruntime";
$united = $jndiroot.$mserver;
$serviceURL = new java("javax.management.remote.JMXServiceURL",$protocol, $hostname, $port,$united);
$h = new java("java.util.Hashtable");
$h->put("javax.naming.Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL", "myUID");
$h->put("javax.naming.Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS", "myPWD");
$h->put("javax.management.remote.JMXConnectorFactory.PROTOCOL_PROVIDER_PACKAGES",
"weblogic.management.remote");
$connector = new java("javax.management.remote.JMXConnectorFactory");
$connector->connect($serviceURL,$h);
?>
This is how I FINALLY connected to my Weblogic:
1) I installed Tomcat 7.0 zip file instead of the installer and set it up manually. In my
setenv.bat file it looks like:
set CATALINA_HOME=C:\Program Files (x86)\Apache Software Foundation\apache-tomcat-7.0.34
set CATALINA_BASE=C:\Program Files (x86)\Apache Software Foundation\apache-tomcat-7.0.34
set JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.7.0_09
set JRE_HOME=C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.7.0_09\jre
set JAVA_OPTS=-Djava.ext.dirs=C:\Oracle\Middleware\wlserver_12.1\server\lib
set CLASSPATH=.;C:\Oracle\Middleware\wlserver_12.1\server\lib\wljmxclient.jar
exit /b 0
2) I enabled IIOP protocol in weblogic through the weblogic console and added a userid/password which I used in num 3 for the userID/password
3) My php script on Tomcat 7 with the PHP/Java Bridge (not the JMXServerURL . . . nowhere did I find that you had to use "rmi" as the protocol")
$serviceURL = new java("javax.management.remote.JMXServiceURL","rmi","localhost","7001","/jndi/iiop://localhost:7001/weblogic.management.mbeanservers.edit");
//"service:jmx:iiop://localhost:7001/jndi/weblogic.management.mbeanservers.edit");
$env = new java("java.util.Hashtable");
$env->put("javax.management.remote.JMXConnectorFactory.PROTOCOL_PROVIDER_PACKAGES","weblogic.management.remote");
$env->put("javax.naming.Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL", "myuserID");
$env->put("javax.naming.Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS", "mypassword");
$jmxCon = java("javax.management.remote.JMXConnectorFactory")->newJMXConnector($serviceURL, $env);
$jmxCon->connect();
$connection = $jmxCon->getMBeanServerConnection();
$mbeans = $connection->queryNames(null,null);
foreach($mbeans as $key=>$value) {
echo $key. "=". $value;
}
It connected and printed out all the mbeans for my admin server and my two managed servers that I created for testing.
I am starting ActiveMQ process through Java code like this:
ProcessBuilder pb = new ProcessBuilder(activeMQHome + "run_activemq.sh",
logDirectory,
activeMQHome,
brokerPath);
pb.start();
logDirectory: log location
activeMQHome: /Common/thirdParty/apache-activemq-5.3.0/bin/
brokerPath: brokerPath location
Now I have to start this process thorugh command line. Or to be more specific, I have to start it through /etc/inittab so that it can start automatically.
What entry should I give? I can start it by ./run_activemq.sh but how will I give logDirectory and brokerPath?
Actually there is need to start AMQ process through Java code. ActiveMQ already comes with start/stop script in its $ACTIVEMQ_HOME/bin directory and that you can very well put in /etc/inittab to start at system startup. Log Directory and other settings are configured in $ACTIVEMQ_HOME/conf/activemq.xml file.
