Ubuntu and many other Linux distros use UpStart to run services. The below example assumes CTP is installed at

You can modify it to suit a different locations.

stop on stopping network-services

respawn

expect fork

script
cd /usr/share/CTP/
java -jar ./CTP-runner.jar
end script


into a file named

/etc/init/CTP.conf

Start the service by typing

start CTP
