Server Scripts

This is a collection of application maintenance scripts to be run on the server. The scripts expect the following directory structure:

• /var/www/application
• /var/www/application_conf
• /var/www/application_logs

Replace application with the name of your application.

Production configuration and logging configuration must be stored in application_conf and named as follows:

• /var/www/application_conf/production.conf
• /var/www/application_logs/logback.xml

Setup

• /var/www/application
• /var/www/application_conf
• /var/www/application_logs

Unzips the application package, installs and runs the application.

Go

Start

Stop

Update

Updates the application to a new version. Requires ZIP file of the new version to be in the same directory as the script.

Configuring Scripts

Modify APP_DIR and APP_DIR_CONF variables in each script to reflect the name of your application. For example:

• APP_DIR = coolapp
• APP_DIR_CONF = coolapp_conf

• sudo chmod 700 start
