Spring Boot application as a Service

Question

How to configure nicely Spring Boot application packaged as executable jar as a Service in the Linux system  Is this recommended approach  or should I convert this app to war and install it into Tomcat  Currently  I can run Spring boot application from the screen session  which is nice but requires manual start after a server reboot  What I m looking for is general advice direction or sample init d the script  if my approach with executable jar is proper

In this question  the answer from  PbxMan should get you started   Run a Java Application as a Service on Linux  Edit   There is another  less nice way to start a process on reboot  using cron    reboot user-to-run-under  usr bin java -jar  path to application jar   This works  but gives you no nice start stop interface for your application  You can still simply kill it anyway

Following up on Chad s excellent answer  if you get an error of  Error  Could not find or load main class  - and you spend a couple hours trying to troubleshoot it  whether your executing a shell script that starts your java app or starting it from systemd itself - and you know your classpath is 100  correct  e g  manually running the shell script works as well as running what you have in systemd execstart   Be sure you re running things as the correct user   In my case  I had tried different users  after quite a while of troubleshooting - i finally had a hunch  put root as the user - voila  the app started correctly   After determining it was a wrong user issue  I chown -R user user the folder and subfolders and the app ran correctly as the specified user and group so no longer needed to run it as root  bad security

I just got around to doing this myself  so the following is where I am so far in terms of a CentOS init d service controller script  It s working quite nicely so far  but I m no leet Bash hacker  so I m sure there s room for improvement  so thoughts on improving it are welcome   First of all  I have a short config script  data svcmgmt conf my-spring-boot-api sh for each service  which sets up environment variables      bin bash export JAVA HOME  opt jdk1 8 0 05 jre export APP HOME  data apps my-spring-boot-api export APP NAME my-spring-boot-api export APP PORT 40001   I m using CentOS  so to ensure that my services are started after a server restart  I have a service control script in  etc init d my-spring-boot-api      bin bash   description  my-spring-boot-api start stop restart   processname  my-spring-boot-api   chkconfig  234 20 80     data svcmgmt conf my-spring-boot-api sh   data svcmgmt bin spring-boot-service sh  1  exit 0   As you can see  that calls the initial config script to set up environment variables and then calls a shared script which I use for restarting all of my Spring Boot services  That shared script is where the meat of it all can be found      bin bash  echo  Service   APP NAME  -   1    echo      JAVA HOME  JAVA HOME  echo      APP HOME  APP HOME  echo      APP NAME  APP NAME  echo      APP PORT  APP PORT   function start       if pkill -0 -f  APP NAME jar  gt   dev null 2 gt  amp 1     then         echo  Service   APP NAME  is already running  Ignoring startup request           exit 1     fi     echo  Starting application         nohup  JAVA HOME bin java -jar  APP HOME  APP NAME jar           --spring config location file  APP HOME config               lt   dev null  gt   APP HOME logs app log 2 gt  amp 1  amp     function stop       if   pkill -0 -f  APP NAME jar  gt   dev null 2 gt  amp 1     then         echo  Service   APP NAME  is not running  Ignoring shutdown request           exit 1     fi        First  we will try to trigger a controlled shutdown using        spring-boot-actuator     curl -X POST http   localhost  APP PORT shutdown  lt   dev null  gt   dev null 2 gt  amp 1        Wait until the server process has shut down     attempts 0     while pkill -0 -f  APP NAME jar  gt   dev null 2 gt  amp 1     do         attempts    attempts   1          if    attempts -gt 5           then               We have waited too long  Kill it              pkill -f  APP NAME jar  gt   dev null 2 gt  amp 1         fi         sleep 1s     done    case  1 in start      start    stop      stop    restart      stop     start    esac exit 0   When stopping  it will attempt to use Spring Boot Actuator to perform a controlled shutdown  However  in case Actuator is not configured or fails to shut down within a reasonable time frame  I give it 5 seconds  which is a bit short really   the process will be killed   Also  the script makes the assumption that the java process running the appllication will be the only one with  my-spring-boot-api jar  in the text of the process details  This is a safe assumption in my environment and means that I don t need to keep track of PIDs

In systemd unit files you can set environment variables directory or through an EnvironmentFile  I would propose doing things this way since it seems to be the least amount of friction   Sample unit file    cat  etc systemd system hello-world service  Unit  Description Hello World Service After systend-user-sessions service   Service  EnvironmentFile  etc sysconfig hello-world Type simple ExecStart  usr bin java     hello-world jar   Then setup a file under  etc sysconfig hello-world which includes uppercase names of your Spring Boot variables  For example  a variable called server port would follow the form SERVER PORT as an environment variable     cat  etc sysconfig hello-world SERVER PORT 8081   The mechanism being exploited here is that Spring Boot applications will take the list of properties and then translate them  making everything uppercase  and replacing dots with underscores  Once the Spring Boot app goes through this process  it then looks for environment variables that match  and uses any found accordingly   This is highlighted in more detail in this SO Q amp A titled  How to set a Spring Boot property with an underscore in its name via Environment Variables   References   Part IV  Spring Boot features - 24  Externalized Configuration

I don t know of a  standard  shrink-wrapped way to do that with a Java app  but it s definitely a good idea  you want to benefit from the keep-alive and monitoring capabilities of the operating system if they are there   It s on the roadmap to provide something from the Spring Boot tool support  maven and gradle   but for now you are probably going to have to roll your own  The best solution I know of right now is Foreman  which has a declarative approach and one line commands for packaging init scripts for various standard OS formats  monit  sys V  upstart etc    There is also evidence of people having set stuff up with gradle  e g  here

I am trying to make springboot applications that are presented as a  init d  style shell script with a compressed java application tacked on the end  By symlinking these scripts from  etc init d spring-app to  opt spring-app jar and chmod ing the jar to be executable it is possible to make   etc init d spring-app start    etc init d spring-app stop  and other possibilities like status work  Presumably  as the init d style scripts from springboot look that they have the neccessary magic strings   like   Default-Start      2 3 4 5  chkconfig would be able to add it as a  service   But I wanted to get it to work with systemd  To make this work I tried many of the recipies in the other answers above but none of them worked for me on Centos 7 2 with Springboot 1 3  Mostly they would start the service but not be able to track the pid  In the end I found the following did work for me  when the  etc init d link was in place also   A file similar to the one below should be installed as  usr lib systemd system spring-app service   Unit  Description My loverly application After syslog target    Service  Type forking PIDFile  var run spring-app spring-app pid ExecStart  etc init d spring-app start SuccessExitStatus 143   Install  WantedBy multi-user target

You could also use supervisord which is a very handy daemon  which can be used to easily control services  These services are defined by simple configuration files defining what to execute with which user in which directory and so forth  there are a zillion options  supervisord has a very simple syntax  so it makes a very good alternative to writing SysV init scripts   Here a simple supervisord configuration file for the program you are trying to run control   put this into  etc supervisor conf d yourapp conf    etc supervisor conf d yourapp conf   program yourapp  command  usr bin java -jar  path to application jar user usertorun autostart true autorestart true startsecs 10 startretries 3 stdout logfile  var log yourapp-stdout log stderr logfile  var log yourapp-stderr log   To control the application you would need to execute supervisorctl  which will present you with a prompt where you could start  stop  status yourapp   CLI    sudo supervisorctl yourapp             RUNNING   pid 123123  uptime 1 day  15 00 00 supervisor gt  stop yourapp supervisor gt  start yourapp   If the supervisord daemon is already running and you ve added the configuration for your serivce without restarting the daemon you can simply do a reread and update command in the supervisorctl shell   This really gives you all the flexibilites you would have using SysV Init scripts  but easy to use and control  Take a look at the documentation

What follows is the easiest way to install a Java application as system service in Linux   Let s assume you are using systemd  which any modern distro nowadays does    Firstly  create a service file in  etc systemd system named e g  javaservice service with this content    Unit  Description Java Service   Service  User nobody   The configuration file application properties should be here  WorkingDirectory  data  ExecStart  usr bin java -Xmx256m -jar application jar --server port 8081 SuccessExitStatus 143 TimeoutStopSec 10 Restart on-failure RestartSec 5   Install  WantedBy multi-user target   Secondly  notify systemd of the new service file   systemctl daemon-reload   and enable it  so it runs on boot   systemctl enable javaservice service   Eventually  you can use the following commands to start stop your new service   systemctl start javaservice systemctl stop javaservice systemctl restart javaservice systemctl status javaservice   Provided you are using systemd  this is the most non-intrusive and clean way to set up a Java application as system-service   What I like especially about this solution is the fact that you don t need to install and configure any other software  The shipped systemd does all the work for you  and your service behaves like any other system service  I use it in production for a while now  on different distros  and it just works as you would expect   Another plus is that  by using  usr bin java  you can easily add jvm paramters such as -Xmx256m   Also read the systemd part in the official Spring Boot documentation  http   docs spring io spring-boot docs current reference html deployment-install html

The following works for springboot 1 3 and above   As init d service  The executable jar has the usual start  stop  restart  and status commands  It will also set up a PID file in the usual  var run directory and logging in the usual  var log directory by default   You just need to symlink your jar into  etc init d like so  sudo link -s  var myapp myapp jar  etc init d myapp   OR  sudo ln -s   myproject build libs myapp-1 0 jar  etc init d myapp servicename   After that you can do the usual   etc init d myapp start   Then setup a link in whichever runlevel you want the app to start stop in on boot if so desired      As a systemd service  To run a Spring Boot application installed in var myapp you can add the following script in  etc systemd system myapp service    Unit  Description myapp After syslog target   Service  ExecStart  var myapp myapp jar   Install  WantedBy multi-user target     NB  in case you are using this method  do not forget to make the jar file itself executable  with chmod  x  otherwise it will fail with error  Permission denied    Reference   http   docs spring io spring-boot docs current-SNAPSHOT reference html deployment-install html deployment-service

Create a script with name your-app service  rest-app service   We should place this script in  etc systemd system directory  Here is the sample content of the script   Unit  Description Spring Boot REST Application After syslog target   Service  User javadevjournal ExecStart  var rest-app restdemo jar SuccessExitStatus 200   Install  WantedBy multi-user target   Next    service rest-app start   References  enter link description here

I ended up doing systemd service for WAR JAR layout   I m calling java -jar because its more flexible  Tried also putting the ExecStart spring-mvc war but even though is executable  I got  Exec format error   Anyway these days  systemd is present on all distros  and offers a nice solution to redirect logs syserr is important when you service doesn t even start log4j file location will be empty        cat  etc systemd system spring-mvc service   Unit  Description Spring MVC Java Service   Service  User spring-mvc   The configuration file application properties should be here  WorkingDirectory  usr local spring-mvc     Run ExecStartPre with root-permissions PermissionsStartOnly true  ExecStartPre - bin mkdir -p  var log spring-mvc   ExecStartPre  bin chown -R spring-mvc syslog  var log spring-mvc ExecStartPre  bin chmod -R 775  var log spring-mvc     https   www freedesktop org software systemd man systemd service html ExecStart  ExecStart  usr bin java           -Dlog4j configurationFile log4j2-spring xml           -DLog4jContextSelector org apache logging log4j core async AsyncLoggerContextSelector           -Dspring profiles active dev           -Denvironment-type dev           -XX  UseConcMarkSweepGC           -XX CMSInitiatingOccupancyFraction 80           -XX NewSize 756m           -XX MetaspaceSize 256m           -Dsun net inetaddr ttl 5           -Xloggc  var log spring-mvc gc log           -verbose gc           -verbosegc           -XX  DisableExplicitGC           -XX  PrintGCDetails           -XX  PrintGCDateStamps           -XX  PreserveFramePointer           -XX  StartAttachListener           -Xms1024m           -Xmx1024m           -XX  HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError           -jar spring-mvc war  SuccessExitStatus 143 StandardOutput journal StandardError journal   KillSignal SIGINT TimeoutStopSec 20 Restart always RestartSec 5 StartLimitInterval 0 StartLimitBurst 10  LimitNOFILE 500000 LimitNPROC 500000   https   www freedesktop org software systemd man systemd exec html LimitCPU   LimitCPU   LimitFSIZE   LimitDATA   LimitSTACK   LimitCORE   LimitRSS   LimitNOFILE   LimitAS   LimitNPROC   LimitMEMLOCK   LimitLOCKS   LimitSIGPENDING   LimitMSGQUEUE   LimitNICE   LimitRTPRIO   LimitRTTIME     SyslogIdentifier spring-mvc   Install  WantedBy multi-user target     https   www freedesktop org software systemd man journalctl html  check logs --- journalctl -u spring-mvc -f -o cat   rsyslog - redirect syslog input from app to specific folder file  cat  etc rsyslog d 30-spring-mvc conf  if  programname     spring-mvc  then  var log spring-mvc spring-mvc log  amp  stop   logrotate  cat  etc logrotate d spring-mvc conf   var log spring-mvc spring-mvc log       daily     rotate 30     maxage 30     copytruncate     missingok     notifempty     compress     dateext     dateformat   Y- m- d  H- M     delaycompress     create 644 spring-mvc syslog     su spring-mvc syslog     logrotate gc  cat  etc logrotate d spring-mvc-gc conf   var log spring-mvc gc log       daily     rotate 30     maxage 30     copytruncate     missingok     notifempty     compress     dateext     dateformat   Y- m- d  H- M     delaycompress     create 644 spring-mvc syslog     su spring-mvc syslog
