Proper use of processtreekiller

[Eric Wood]

I'm attempting to start a tomcat server via the publish over ssh plugin.  

I call a shell script as follows:

        sudo nohup /apps/Config/usr/local/bin/ec2-init env start > /dev/null 2>&1 & 

This script in turn calls the following:  ec2-init > tomcat_sdb > startup.sh > catalina.sh.

Our IT guy set the following in the script tomcat_sdb:

    

    # Protection from Jenkins ProcessTree Killer

    BUILD_ID=dontKillMe

    export JAVA_HOME JAVA_OPTS PATH CUSTID APPID INSTANCEID JBOSS_SERVER BUILD_ID

 

As soon as the Jenkins job terminates I can see the catalina process die.

What is the proper way to invoke this environment variable to keep the tomcat process alive after Jenkins terminates?

Hi:

We resolved this my running tomcat as a daemon process. There are instructions at the tomcat site regarding how to do this.  Once tomcat was running as a daemon process, when the Jenkins job terminated that started the tomcat application server, the tomcat application server stayed running.
