#### Monitoring of server states (and other things)

############################# #############################

```
SMonitor beta version -- **Prerequisite: Java** 8 or higher! ---
```

**[ ! ] 2026: NO need for an update [ ! ]**

Built on/for Linux KUbuntu 16.04, Java 8, Apache2 web server and MySQL data base server (status quo 06/2018) -- it may run on other system configurations as well. ----

With different init methods (SysV/Upstart/systemd) and after some updates the servers were started at boot time even if they should not, so I put this tool into 'Autostart' to be informed of the misbehavior.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Sorry about the additional pop-up -- it is a temporary workaround
for some issues of snappy (snap, snapd, snapcraft). More details at:

<https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/running-systemd-commands-inside-a-snap/3591/5>

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The snap-store-distribution-log is a little "u-heavy":
arcolinux zorin neon debian deepin fedora kali linuxmint parrot manjaro

++++++++++++++++++++++
You could try a Mac or Windows version (untested)
if you have installed Open-Web-Start (ex Java-Web-Start || check with: javaws -about ).

## Enable snaps on elementary OS and install SMonitor

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

Snap can be installed on elementary OS from the command line. Open *Terminal* from the Applications launcher and type the following:

```
sudo apt update
sudo apt install snapd
```

Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.

### Install SMonitor
