| First, make sure Java is installed properly. By default most linux distros come with an open source version of Java that may not work with CrushFTP. Make sure its an official OpenJDK java, or other suitable JVM. |
| CrushFTP11 requires Java 17+ to run. First, check if there is a Java/OpenJDK 17+ runtime available on the host, by default most linux distros come with an open source version of Java that may not work with CrushFTP. If there is none, download the latest OpenJDK tarball for your OS platform ( AMD64 or ARM) from [https://jdk.java.net/archive/|https://jdk.java.net/archive/], untar it into the CrushFTP11 installation folder then rename the resulting jdk-21 folder to Java |

| To run Java, you may need to specify the full path to the java binary. Something possibly like /usr/java/jre1.5.0_11/bin/java. Its going to depend on where you installed it. |

| __Running as non-root (not recommanded)__ |
| \\ |
| \\ |
|
| This method details how to run from rc.local on a systemd init based Linux flavor. Running as a non-root user won't allow binding to ports below 1024, will need to use NAT or port rewrite rules in iptables to be able to server on IANA defined well known ports. |
| \\ |
| \\ |
| Running crush in user mode as "crushftp" system user, by adding below lines into rc.local (generic method)\\ |
| \\ |
| {{{ |
| su - crushftp -c '/var/opt/CrushFTP11/crushftp_init.sh start' |
| exit 0 |
| }}} |
| \\ |
| This may be required in case daemon mode doesn't output to nohup.out, in this case modify the init script as |
| \\ |
| {{{ |
| $NOHUP $JAVA -Ddir=$CRUSH_DIR -Xmx384M -jar plugins/lib/CrushFTPJarProxy.jar -d 2>>nohup.out & |
|
| }}} |
| \\ |
| \\ |
| Running in user mode on systemd RHEL 7/8 family Linux\\ |
| \\ |
| First in crushftp_init.sh will need to set the user as "crushftp" ( or whatever non-root user) then allow rc-local.service to be able to run ( needed for compatibility mode, non root user) |
| \\ |
| {{{ |
| touch /etc/systemd/system/rc-local.service |
| vi /etc/systemd/system/rc-local.service |
| }}} |
| \\ |
| paste into below |
| \\ |
| {{{ |

| then edit /etc/rc.local |
| \\ |

| \\ |
| add in |
| \\ |
| {{{ |
| su crushftp /var/opt/CrushFTP11/crushftp_init.sh start |
| exit 0 |
| }}} |
| \\ |
| then make it executable |
| \\ |
| {{{ |
| chmod +x /etc/rc.local |
| }}} |
| \\ |
| then install the rc.local service |
| \\ |
| {{{ |
| systemctl enable rc-local.service |

| \\ |
| reboot, check if OK |
