Config tomcat

Goal: Configure to load tomcat on startup on MAC Sierre

Write launchd_tomcat_wrapper.sh

#!/bin/bash

function shutdown()
{
        date
        echo "Shutting down Tomcat"
        $CATALINA_HOME/bin/catalina.sh stop
}

date
echo "Starting Tomcat"
export CATALINA_PID=/tmp/$$

# Uncomment to increase Tomcat's maximum heap allocation
# export JAVA_OPTS=-Xmx512M $JAVA_OPTS

. $CATALINA_HOME/bin/catalina.sh start

# Allow any signal which would kill a process to stop Tomcat
trap shutdown HUP INT QUIT ABRT KILL ALRM TERM TSTP

echo "Waiting for `cat $CATALINA_PID`"
wait `cat $CATALINA_PID`

Write org.apache.tomcat.plist

Move org.apache.tomcat.plist to /Library/LaunchDaemons

Load service manually: sudo launchctl load -w org.apache.tomcat.plist
Unload service manually: sudo launchctl unload -w org.apache.tomcat.plist

Check log launchctl : /var/log/system.log
