A service (init.d) script for jupyter
#! /bin/sh
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: jupyter
# Required-Start: $remote_fs $syslog
# Required-Stop: $remote_fs $syslog
# Default-Start: 2 3 4 5
# Default-Stop: 0 1 6
# Short-Description: Start jupyter
# Description: This file should be used to construct scripts to be
# placed in /etc/init.d.
### END INIT INFO

#
# Please remove the "Author" lines above and replace them
# with your own name if you copy and modify this script.
# This version was forked from jmtatsch/jupyter.
# 1. The problem of not stopping the jupyter service is fixed.
# It was caused by the exec problem. More details are found in
# https://chris-lamb.co.uk/posts/start-stop-daemon-exec-vs-startas
# 2. Previously the jupyter was run as root, but it is changed to
# be executed as a non-privilege user like 1000:1000 (UID:GID)
# 3. The working dir is added as an argument.
# Do NOT "set -e"
# PATH should only include /usr/* if it runs after the mountnfs.sh script

Can you please let me know # Load the VERBOSE setting and other rcS variables
. /lib/init/vars.sh and # and status_of_proc is working.
. /lib/lsb/init-functions

As i am not finding them on rhel7 . also if i remove those scripts i am getting errors as command not found for log_daemon_msg do_start do_stop .. Please help i want to run jupyterhub as non root user without any spawner class .. like the above as daemon

I just tried using this on a fresh Ubuntu 14.04 server on AWS. It doesn't work fully. The stop specifically doesn't work. The start does, but I get no feedback, no "OK" message. But the service is running.


Ok it worked somewhat after I chowned the log file. Also the logging directory needs to be created.

But the stopping sometimes takes a little while. I don't understand the delay. And it sometimes gets completely frozen. Weird.
