# Geoserver configuration - use /etc/default/geoserver to override these vars
# user that shall run GeoServer

# NOTE:
# This is the script to start Geoserver as daemon on Ubuntu
# You have to create this user with adduser first (in this script, it is geoserver)
# Then, chown GEOSERVER_HOME to that user, before running this script:
# sudo adduser geoserver
# sudo chown -R geoserver /var/www/geoserver

# Then, follow instruction here: https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/127569/geoserver-init-d-script
# In summary, first you have to create a file called geoserver inside /etc/default
# Then, create another file also called geoserver in /etc/init.d
# The content of that file is this code.
# Then, follow the instructions in the link above.
