Setup autostart services in Linux with SELinux

By -

1) Create your start / stop script in a predefined directory (e.g. /development/service-script/ )

  • /development/service-script/start-cmd
  • /development/service-script/stop-cmd

2) Allow SELinux to execute binaries in the predefined directory /development/service-script/ (!! important for SELinux)

    chcon -R -t bin_t /development/service-script/


3) Create abc.service in /etc/systemd/system/

    # Systemd unit file for ABC service

    [Unit] 
    Description=ABC service
    After=syslog.target network.target

    [Service]
    Type=forking

    ExecStart=/development/service-script/start-cmd
    ExecStop=/development/service-script/stop-cmd

    User=service_owner
    Group=service_owner
    UMask=0007
    RestartSec=10
    Restart=always

    [Install]
    WantedBy=multi-user.target


4) Reload systemd

    systemctl daemon-reload

5) Start ABC service

    systemctl start abc


6) If ABC service is working, then we can enabled it for autostart

    systemctl enable abc

Java encoding : UTF-8, Big5, x-MS950-HKSCS

By -
Suppose you got a file in Big5 containing some HKSCS characters (e.g. 深水埗, 赤鱲角, etc). When your environment (Ref: Charset.defaultCharset( ) ) is either UTF-8 / Big5, you will never get the things work. The proper encoding should be "x-MS950-HKSCS" This situation happens when I'm try the same pieces of code in Java console / Eclipse console and JSP @ Tomcat. While JSP works fine, but sucks in console mode. Finally I found the JSP is actually using encoding "x-MS950-HKSCS". To set environment charset in Eclipse: Right click on the file that you are going to execute (e.g. Testing.java), then "Properties" → "Run/Debug Settings" → "Common" → "Encoding". Type "x-MS950-HKSCS" in the field. What a pity!
