How to keep springboot application alive after exiting putty

I am running my spring boot application on my server using putty via command mvn spring-boot:run and it runs only when I have open ssh session. Is it possible to keep application alive after I disconnect session? Or do I have to make executable war file and deploy to installed tomcat server on my ubunntu 14.04. I know others ways to deploy boot apps but I want to know if it is possible in my approach.

If you are deploying your executable jar

nohup java -jar <your jar name>

If you don't want console logs to be written (you have logging frameworks which handles the application logs) then use this command

nohup mvn spring-boot:run </dev/null >/dev/null 2>&1 &

BTW, just curious, why are you using mvn spring-boot:run to run your program in your server? doesn't that require you to have maven runtime installed in your server as well?

You can run the command in the background and with nohup like so

nohup mvn spring-boot:run &

When you do this, the application runs in background even after you close ssh session.

In putty, you need to use nohup mvn spring-boot:run > spring-log.txt & to run the command in the background and this generates the spring-log.txt file.
