How to create a deamon service for java program – Centos 6

Here the link I used for create the service script:

vim service.name.sh

insert this:

#!/bin/sh
SERVICE_NAME=MyService
PATH_TO_JAR=/usr/local/MyProject/MyJar.jar
PID_PATH_NAME=/tmp/MyService-pid
case $1 in
start)
echo “Starting $SERVICE_NAME …”
if [ ! -f $PID_PATH_NAME ]; then
nohup java -jar $PATH_TO_JAR /tmp 2>> /dev/null >> /dev/null &
echo $! > $PID_PATH_NAME
echo “$SERVICE_NAME started …”
else
echo “$SERVICE_NAME is already running …”
fi
;;
stop)
if [ -f $PID_PATH_NAME ]; then
PID=$(cat $PID_PATH_NAME);
echo “$SERVICE_NAME stoping …”
kill $PID;
echo “$SERVICE_NAME stopped …”
rm $PID_PATH_NAME
else
echo “$SERVICE_NAME is not running …”
fi
;;
restart)
if [ -f $PID_PATH_NAME ]; then
PID=$(cat $PID_PATH_NAME);
echo “$SERVICE_NAME stopping …”;
kill $PID;
echo “$SERVICE_NAME stopped …”;
rm $PID_PATH_NAME
echo “$SERVICE_NAME starting …”
nohup java -jar $PATH_TO_JAR /tmp 2>> /dev/null >> /dev/null &
echo $! > $PID_PATH_NAME
echo “$SERVICE_NAME started …”
else
echo “$SERVICE_NAME is not running …”
fi
;;
esac

modify the environment variable

SERVICE_NAME=MyService
PATH_TO_JAR=/usr/local/MyProject/MyJar.jar
PID_PATH_NAME=/tmp/MyService-pid
