Configuring ActiveMQ to run automatically

ActiveMQ can be configured to start and run automatically.
  1. Create a user named activemq that you will use to run the ActiveMQ automatic process:

    sudo useradd -m activemq
  2. Create an init.d script; for example, in /etc/init.d/activemq to run the ActiveMQ shell script under the activemq user:

    #!/bin/bash
    # chkconfig: 2345 80 20
    cd opt//activemq
    /bin/su activemq -c "bin/activemq $@"
  3. Make the file executable and enable the script:

    chmod +x /etc/init.d/activemq
    chkconfig --add activemq
