Redhat/CentoOS init.d Script

[arleslie-zz]

Very basic init.d script for Redhat/CentOS.

• This will run as root

This was based of the Debian script by Joe Niland.

Features: Start, Stop and Status

[arleslie-zz]

Someone with understanding of the daemon function could make it not run as root.
I had issues with it and getting the pidfile to work.

daemon --user=$DAEMON_USER $JAVA -jar $DAEMON &> /dev/null &

the --pidfile argument never wrote to the file and $! gets a different PID.

Thanks @arleslie for the PR and sorry for the delay in responding!

Did you take a look at https://github.com/newrelic-platform/newrelic_mysql_java_plugin/blob/master/scripts/etc/init.d/newrelic-mysql-plugin.rh ? I think that was meant to be an init.d script for RedHat. Have you given it a try?

@jstenhouse, unfortunately I did not see that script before, I'll try it
out in a few days and let you know how it goes.

I'm using the init script scripts/etc/init.d/newrelic-mysql-plugin.rh on CentOS in production and it works fine for me.
