Jacques Le Roux commented on OFBIZ-7796:
----------------------------------------
Now I want to inform you about a special case: when you want to run several OFBiz instances on the same machine. That's what I do with the demos and there is a problem with Gradle. It seems you can't restart them independently or I missed something.
Every morning all instances restart sequentially. When I started I tried to use
bq. ./gradlew "ofbizBackground --stop"
for the trunk and the same with a portoffset for stable (aka R16.11)
But it did not work and I had to use ./gradlew terminateOfbiz in trunk to stop both trunk and R16. It's not a big deal for demos since I restart them sequentially, just that stable wait a bit more berfore restarting. And If I then try to restart R16 independently I get errors. Note that in this case it does not destabilise the running trunk instance.
So in case I replace "terminateOFBiz" by "ofbizBackground --stop" in trunk-manual.sh (see copy in tools\demo-backup) it does not work and I get attached errors. So it seems related to a mix with Gradle and portoffset. The portoffset solution was working fine when using only plain Java before. I did not investigate more.
> Running OFBiz as a service fails

> Key: OFBIZ-7796
> URL:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-7796> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Affects Versions: Trunk
> Environment: Ubuntu 16.04, openjdk-8-jdk
> Reporter: Pierre Smits
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: OFBIZ-77796-rc.ofbiz.for.debian.patch, OFBIZ-7796-rc.ofbiz.for.debian-v2.patch

>
> In a new ubuntu environment I performed a checkout from trunk and ran the loadDefault build script.
> After this had completed, I moved the ofbiz directory from my user folder to the /opt folder, and configured the Ubuntu environment to be able to run OFBiz as a service.
> This entails:
> * deploy a script in /etc/init.d
> * set the correct permissions of the service script
> * create the service user
> * changed the owner and ownergroup of the files and folders in /opt/ofbiz
> and then fire the service:
> sudo /etc/init.d/ofbiz start
> This normally starts the proces java -jar ofbiz.jar
> But now nothing happens.
