As a senior security CMS website operations personnel, I am well aware of the importance of content creation, publication, and optimization, and I understand that stable and efficient system operation is the foundation for ensuring the transmission of content value.Deploying AnQiCMS on a Linux server and ensuring its continuous stable operation is a practical problem faced by many operators.nohupIs the startup method **practical, and I will elaborate in detail for everyone with the official document of AnQi CMS.
The official deployment document of AnQi CMS, especially in the instructions for installing on Baota panel (recommended) and manually installing via command line, clearly mentions usingnohupThe command to start the AnQiCMS application. This is usually done through a shell script namedstart.shwhich is further integrated into the Linux system'scrontabIn the task scheduling, to achieve a persistent running mechanism that checks every minute and automatically starts the AnQiCMS process.
Specifically, the documentation provides.start.shThe script example includes.nohup $BINPATH/$BINNAME >> $BINPATH/running.log 2>&1 &This core command.nohupplayed a key role here.Its full name is "no hang up", its main function is to allow the program to run in the background, and the program will not stop even if the user exits the current logged-in shell session.running.logIn the file, for easy viewing of log information in the future. The trailing&symbol means to run the command in the background.
Then, this kind ofnohupIs the startup method Fesiong for deploying AnQiCMS on a Linux server the practice provided?\nFrom the guidance in the official documentation, for the scenario of manual deployment directly on a Linux server (non-Docker container deployment), this combinationstart.shscripts andcrontabofnohupStartup method,It is indeed the standard practice provided and recommended by the official. It has the following advantages:
First, the operation is simple. For many system administrators or operation personnel, writing and configuring a simple shell script and adding it to the cron task is more complex than configuring complexsystemdService files or container orchestration tools are more intuitive and fast. This conforms to the "simple deployment" feature of the AnQiCMS project.
Secondly, process persistence has been implemented. ThroughnohupThe AnQiCMS application can run independently in the background without being affected by the closing of the terminal andcrontabThe minute check mechanism ensures that even if the AnQiCMS process exits unexpectedly, it will be automatically restarted in a short time, thus ensuring the continuity of the service.This is a very practical solution for small and medium-sized enterprises and self-media operators, which can effectively avoid losses caused by service interruption.
However, we should also look at the definition of "practice" objectively. In more complex enterprise environments, when the number of services running on the server is large, requiring more refined resource management, dependency control, and stronger log aggregation and monitoring capabilities, specialized process management tools (such as systemdService,Supervisoretc) or containerization platforms such as Docker/Kubernetes may provide more comprehensive and robust solutions.AnQiCMS documentation also provides Docker installation tutorials based on 1Panel or aaPanel, indicating that Fesiong also recognizes the advantages of containerized deployment in certain scenarios.
In summary, for the direct Linux server deployment scenario of AnQiCMS, Fesiong recommends through the official documentation,nohupCombinecrontabthe startup method is itsOfficially provided, effective, and easy to use standard practice.It well balances the convenience of deployment and the stability of operation, especially suitable for the needs of the target user group of AnQiCMS.For environments that pursue ultimate robustness and scalability, consider other deployment methods or more advanced operation and maintenance tools supported by AnQiCMS.
Frequently Asked Questions
AnQiCMS usesnohupAfter starting, how can you confirm that it is running?
When you usenohupandstart.shAfter starting the AnQiCMS script, you can confirm its running status in various ways. The most direct method is to check the process list, you can useps -ef | grep anqicmsCommand. If the AnQiCMS process is running, you will see the relevant process information. In addition,start.shscripts usually output logs torunning.logFile, you can check this file to understand the startup and runtime output of the application. If configuredcrontabIt checks and tries to start the process every minute, and if the process does not exist, it will leave a record in the log.
If I want AnQiCMS to automatically start after the server restarts, besidescrontabare there other more robust methods?
Yes, besides addingstart.shthe script tocrontabIn addition to the strategy to check and start every minute, a more conventional method for Linux system service management is to createsystemda service.systemdIt is a powerful tool used in modern Linux distributions for managing system processes and service initialization, management, and monitoring. It can be used to write a.serviceFile, you can define the startup command, working directory, log path, restart strategy, and dependencies of AnQiCMS, systemdIt will automatically launch AnQiCMS at server startup and restart it automatically when it crashes, providing finer and more reliable service management. Although the official documentation does not directly providesystemdThis is a general and recommended method for running a persistent service on a Linux server, but it is an example configuration.
I can run multiple AnQiCMS instances on the same server, and they can all usenohupShall I start?
Absolutely.AnQiCMS supports running multiple instances on the same server.The official document clearly states that each AnQiCMS instance needs to occupy a different port.config.jsonConfigured uniquely in the fileportAnd ensure that each instance's executable file and itsstart.shpath and filename in the script are independent.
