Daemons for Crowd, Fisheye and Bamboo

[Andy Li]

Hey guys,

What does Atlassian recommend in running these processes as daemons?

Currently I'm using start-stop-daemon in a script like this.

FISHEYE_PATH="/opt/fisheye/fecru-3.2.0/bin"

case "$1" in
    start)
        start-stop-daemon --start --quiet -c crucible -g crucible --exec $FISHEYE_PATH/start.sh
        ;;
    stop)
        start-stop-daemon --start --quiet -c crucible -g crucible --exec $FISHEYE_PATH/stop.sh
        ;;
    *)
        echo "Usage: $0 {start|stop}"
        exit 1
        ;;
esac

Is there anything wrong with this?

Hi Andy,

There's no problem running it like that. As a sample here's the script shipped with Atlassian Confluence:

#!/bin/bash

# Confluence Linux service controller script
cd "/opt/atlassian/confluence/bin"

case "$1" in
    start)
        ./start-confluence.sh
        ;;
    stop)
        ./stop-confluence.sh
        ;;
    restart)
        ./stop-confluence.sh
        ./start-confluence.sh
        ;;
    *)
        echo "Usage: $0 {start|stop|restart}"
        exit 1
        ;;
esac

Best regards,
