During the Sun One Web Server install, there is an option to have the web server start on system boot or reboot. In the case that you did not select this option, but would like the web server to start on boot, here’s how you do it.

  1. su -
  2. cd /etc/init.d
  3. create a file named SunWebServer7, and add the following:
    #!/sbin/sh

    #start SunOneWebServer 7 on system restart and boot

    case “$1″ in
    start)
    /var/opt/SUNWwbsvr7/https-SERVERNAME.com/bin/startserv
    ;;
    stop)
    /var/opt/SUNWwbsvr7/https-SERVERNAME.com/bin/stopserv
    ;;
    restart)
    /var/opt/SUNWwbsvr7/https-SERVERNAME.com/bin/restartserv
    ;;
    *)
    echo $”usage: $0 {start|stop|restart}”
    exit 1
    esac

  4. replace SERVERNAME with the name of your server
  5. make sure SunWebServer7 has the same ownership and permissions as the other files in the /etc/init.d directory
  6. create symbolic links to this script in the /etc/rc*.d/ directories. For example:

    ln -s /etc/init.d/SunWebServer7 /etc/rc0.d/K99SunWebServer

Ever want to know what platform a website is running on? If there isn’t the obvious “.apsx” or other file extension, give this a try from command line (using deeblake.com as example):

type this and hit ENTER:

# telnet www.deeblake.com 80

you get this:
Trying 208.113.238.218…
Connected to www.deeblake.com (208.113.238.218).
Escape character is ‘^]’.

then type this and then hit ENTER twice:

GET / HTTP/1.1

you’ll get something like this:

Notice the “Server” line that has all of the platform specs.
