[SOLVED] Problem running .sh script with "screen" and "java"

IJustinI · 06-01-2010, 04:16 AM

Hello.
I have a VPS.
I am trying to run a java application with "screen" (so I can close PuTTy and it will still run)

This is my run.sh

Code:

screen 
cd bin
echo Press Crtl + A + D to detach!
java -Xmx300m -cp .:./bin.:./deps/poi.jar:deps/mysql.jar:deps/mina.jar:deps/slf4j.jar:deps/slf4j-nop.jar:deps/jython.jar:log4j-1.2.15.jar server.Server -server

When I run this run.sh script, this is the output.

Code:

[server@agentblue ~]$ ./run.sh
[screen is terminating]
: No such file or directory
Press Crtl + A + D to detach!
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: server/Server
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: server.Server
        at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:217)
        at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)
        at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:205)
        at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:319)
        at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Launcher.java:294)
        at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:264)
        at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClassInternal(ClassLoader.java:332)

But if I then type in the commands myself
Here are the commands I type in

Code:

cd bin
java -Xmx300m -cp .:./bin.:./deps/poi.jar:deps/mysql.jar:deps/mina.jar:deps/slf4j.jar:deps/slf4j-nop.jar:deps/jython.jar:log4j-1.2.15.jar server.Server -server

The java application/server runs.

What is wrong with my run.sh script?

I have chmod'ed it to 777.
Thanks.

So just to confirm, when you run the script manually you are still in your home directory?

The error on line 2 indicates that there is no bin directory in your home directory.

When I use the script, I am running it from /home/server/ where run.sh is located.
(server is my login for that account)
When I am typing the commands I am in /home/server/ then when I type cd bin it changes to /home/server/bin

Your problem here is the "cd bin" line.

In your script change it to "cd /home/server/bin" and retry - this should solve the problem.

I suspect when you manually run the command; you are first in your java install directory and then change directory to /my/java/installation/bin - where the java executable is located.

Best way to solve your problem is to add the following to your .bash_profile:

Code:

JAVA_HOME=/my/location/to/java/jdk1.6.0_20
export JAVA_HOME
PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin
export PATH

What this will do is setup your Java binary directory to be in your PATH environment variable.

Thereafter you can remove line 2 from your script altogether and running it thereafter (whether in a screen or not) will work

Not really.
The reason why I do 'cd bin' is because in the 'bin' is where my java .class files are.
JDK is install to /home/server/jdk1.6.0_20

Apologies - I only saw your post #3 after my previous post - which I've edited accordingly....try what I've suggested after editing.

IJustinI · 06-01-2010, 04:50 AM

I changed the 'cd bin' to 'cd /home/server/bin' and i now get this

Code:

[server@agentblue ~]$ ./run.sh
[screen is terminating]
: No such file or directory/server/bin
Press Crtl + A + D to detach!

Post the output of:

Code:

#ls -la /home/server

What is the purpose of the bin directory - solely to store your class files?

I notice your java call is quite a complex one - what exactly does that do?

The java line loads a RuneScape private server as it is using .jars as deps (like framework, eg; mysql, apatch) The class file that it is should be loading is located in;
/home/server/bin/server/Server.class

Hmmm...then what's in /home/server/bin; if your actual class files are in /home/server/bin/server?

grail · 06-01-2010, 05:04 AM

Well this would seem to say that somewhere you are not giving us the whole picture??
Why are we getting:

Quote:

: No such file or directory/server/bin

if you have put in:

Quote:

cd /home/server/bin

the /home part seems to be missing and the directory still does not exist

[server@agentblue bin]$ ls
deps scripts server
[server@agentblue bin]$

I don't know what piece of information I am not giving you.
If you have teamviewer you can view my computer and look around

What happens if you take out the reference to screen in the script?

jamescondron · 06-01-2010, 05:12 AM

Can you not tarball it and host it somewhere so we can try it?

EDIT: After testing a simpler version your script wont work anyway, it'll start screen, then when screen terminates it'll run the java. Its procedural, you want

Code:

screen cmd
