Just google on how to start a process automatically on unix… (using /etc/init.d for example). Thanks -Vincent On 16 Dec 2013 at 15:12:45, MaryJane (mgpardi@exis.it(mailto://mgpardi@exis.it)) wrote:

Hi, Let's assume you use Tomcat as a Java Container. When you install tomcat from the repositories, you install also a script to start the Java Container, it's usually /etc/init.d/tomcat6 As Louis-Marie said, you can also use Xinit for that, it's a replacement of that tomcat6 file, but it's only working on tomcat installation not made from a repository (so it won't work if you installed it using APT (deb file) or YUM (rpm file)). It only works for tar.gz installations of tomcat you can found on the official website. But after that, to auto start the tomcat instance, it greatly depends on your linux distribution. If it's a debian for example, you need to look at update-rc.d binaries and manual pages. So xwiki auto-start feature is absolutely not a "xwiki feature" but a job for your Java Container, depending on your Linux distribution. Hope it's clearer now.
