You can simply use "nohup java -jar yourappname.jar &" to run an application at backend , but how to automatically start this application as a service after server reboot ?
Step 1 : make your application a service
write a script as below and put to /etc/init.d/yourappname, make sure this script is readable and executable for the user who is going to run the application.
After doing this you would be able to run below:
sudo service yourappname start
sudo service yourappname restart
sudo service yourappname stop
Step 2 : let system launch the application after reboot
$sudo update-rc.d yourappname defaults
Adding system startup for /etc/init.d/yourappname ...
/etc/rc0.d/KNNyourappname -> ../init.d/yourappname
/etc/rc1.d/KNNyourappname -> ../init.d/yourappname
/etc/rc6.d/KNNyourappname -> ../init.d/yourappname
/etc/rc2.d/KNNyourappname -> ../init.d/yourappname
/etc/rc3.d/KNNyourappname -> ../init.d/yourappname
/etc/rc4.d/KNNyourappname -> ../init.d/yourappname
/etc/rc5.d/KNNyourappname -> ../init.d/yourappname
Reboot your server , your application should be running.
