Running DeepaMehta as a Daemon on Ubuntu 10.04 or likewise systems
You can of course run DeepaMehta on your computer by simply starting the shell script deepamehta-linux.sh in a terminal session. But maybe you want to "daemonize" the server and run it in the background. This setup is especially recommended if you want to run DeepaMehta on a server.
Download DeepaMehta
Download the latest stable version of DeepaMehta from GitHub:
wget https://github.com/downloads/jri/deepamehta/deepamehta-4.XXX.YYY.zip
Unzip zip archive
unzip deepamehta-4.XXX.YYY.zip
Create an unprivileged user
As we do not want to run DeepaMehta as root we need to create an unprivileged user:
adduser --system --home /opt/deepamehta --group --disabled-password --disabled-login --gecos DeepaMehta deepamehta
Copy files
Copy the DeepaMehta files to /opt/deepamehta:
cp -a deepamehta-4.XXX.YYY/* /opt/deepamehta chown -R deepamehta:deepamehta /opt/deepamehta
Create start stop script
Create a scipt named deepamehta in /etc/init.d:
#!/bin/sh ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: deepamehta # Required-Start: $remote_fs $syslog # Required-Stop: $remote_fs $syslog # Default-Start: 2 3 4 5 # Default-Stop: 0 1 6 # Short-Description: DeepaMehta initscript # Description: This file should be used to start and stop DeepaMehta. # To be placed in /etc/init.d. # Author: Juergen Neumann <j.neumann{at}junes{dot}eu> # ### END INIT INFO # Do NOT "set -e" # PATH should only include /usr/* if it runs after the mountnfs.sh script PATH=/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin DESC="DeepaMehta server" NAME=deepamehta DAEMON=/opt/deepamehta/deepamehta-linux.sh EXTRA_ARGS="-c $NAME --user $NAME --name $NAME --background --make-pidfile" DAEMON_ARGS="" PIDFILE=/var/run/$NAME.pid SCRIPTNAME=/etc/init.d/$NAME # Exit if the package is not installed if [ ! -x "$DAEMON" ]; then echo "$DAEMON not found" exit 0 fi # Read configuration variable file if it is present [ -r /etc/default/$NAME ] && . /etc/default/$NAME # Load the VERBOSE setting and other rcS variables . /lib/init/vars.sh # Define LSB log_* functions. # Depend on lsb-base (>= 3.0-6) to ensure that this file is present. . /lib/lsb/init-functions # # Function that reports the status of the daemon/service # status_of_daemon() { # Return # 0 if daemon is running # 1 if daemon is not running # 2 on pidfile mismatch PIDLNUM=$( ps -U $NAME -u $NAME o pid= | sed s'/^\ //' ) if [ "$PIDLNUM" != "" ]; then if [ -f $PIDFILE ]; then PIDFNUM=$( cat $PIDFILE ) if [ "$PIDLNUM" != "$PIDFNUM" ]; then echo -e "\n Error in pidfile $PIDFILE! - Is there another $NAME process running?\n" return 2 else return 0 fi else echo -e "\n WARNING!

Change permissions:
chmod 755 /etc/init.d/deepamehta
Update rc.d
Create links for start stop runlevel:
update-rc.d deepamehta defaults
Now type /etc/init.d/deepamehta start to start DeepaMehta in the background.
Test if service is running as expected
Check if JAVA/jetty is running in the background:
ps aux | grep java | grep felix
Check (on the machine) if jetty is listening on port 8080:
nmap localhost -p 8080
should return
Starting Nmap 5.00 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2011-09-02 22:17 CEST Interesting ports on localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1): PORT STATE SERVICE 8080/tcp open http-proxy Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 0.05 seconds
That's it. :)
