Debian – Cannot start Wildfly

debiandebian-wheezyinit.dwildfly8

I want to start wildfly as a service but nothing happens when I try to start it using:

$ /etc/init.d/wildfly start
Starting WildFly Application Server: wildfly
$ ls -l /etc/init.d/wildfly 
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 6786 Feb 10 16:06 /etc/init.d/wildfly

Then, when I type ps -ef, there is no wildfly or java process.

I followed this post: How can I install WildFly 8.0.0.Final as service on Ubuntu Linux?

It works using this command: /opt/wildfly/bin/standalone.sh
Permission on wildfly folder are:

$ ls -l /opt
total 8
drwxr-xr-x 11 sonar   adm     4096 Feb 11 08:38 sonar
lrwxrwxrwx  1 wildfly wildfly   25 Feb 10 16:06 wildfly -> /opt/wildfly-8.2.0.Final/
drwxr-xr-x 10 wildfly wildfly 4096 Nov 21 05:43 wildfly-8.2.0.Final

I have the following java version:

# java -version
java version "1.8.0_31"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_31-b13)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.31-b07, mixed mode)

Why init.d wildfly service does not work?

I've found the problem and the solution. It is because pidofproc command is missing.

Line 151:

check_status() {
    pidofproc -p "$JBOSS_PIDFILE" "$JAVA" >/dev/null 2>&1
}

I fixed it at line 158 by replacing:

check_status
status_start=$?
if [ $status_start -eq 3 ]; then
#...
fi

By:

check_status
status_start=$?
if [ $status_start -ge 3 ]; then
#...
fi
