How do I build this sh file?

Classic Servoy

Greetings all !!
This is a fairly long post, so thanks for being patient and reading to the end.
Here is what I have done:
Installed Servoy 3.14 and IAnywhere. Both work great. It is the gyrations I have to do to get the server up.
I have read many ways to add to the servoy_server.sh file, none seem to work. Either the dbsrv9 fails to start, or I get a ton of java errors.
I then decided it would be a unique idea to READ THE MANUAL, and I found t his on Page 60 of the Servoy Server Administrative Guide: Paragraph 5.4.1.1 shows the following entries in term (dos prompt) :
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/srv/servoy/sybase_db
export PATH=$PATH:/srv/servoy/sybase_db
cd /srv/servoy

Then I type ./servoy_server.sh and it runs fantastic!!

Before this I always had to type in the source dialogue :

source “/srv/sybase/SYBSsa9/bin32/asa_config.sh”

then ./servoy_developer.sh

then close developer

then type ./servoy_server.sh

So, I understand that the dbsrv9 has to be running in order for the server to work.
This way, provided on page 60 seems to work wonderfully.

Now here is the finaly question…
how do I incorporate these entries plus the ./servoy_server.sh into one command that can be used on system reboot, or when needed?
Right now, I have this sequence stored on a sticky note on my desktop, but it would be nice to just type ./start_this dumb_thing.sh" without copy/paste 4 lines before I can start the server.

So, thanks again for reading to the end.
I have no prize for getting this far, unless you are on the coast of North Carolina. If you are, I will gladly buy ya a hunk of good coffee for the answer

To make a shell script, you create a file that starts with

#!/bin/sh

add whatever lines you usually run from the prompt and save.

Finally, make the file executable by doing

chmod 755 start_this_dumb_thing.sh

or whatever you decide to actually call it :)

HTH,
