Running JBoss as a windows service

[henryc]

Hi,

I've created a JBoss windows service using JavaService.exe. When I start the service I've noticed that a new server gets created pre-pended by an extra space. Is this normal? or is my windows service setup incorrectly?

Here is the syntax for creating the service:
JavaService.exe -install JBoss C:\Java\jdk1.5.0_05\jre\bin\server\jvm.dll -Djava.class.path=D:\jboss-4.0.2\bin\run.jar;C:\Java\jdk1.5.0_05\lib\tools.jar -start org.jboss.Main -method main -params "-c test" -stop org.jboss.Main -method systemExit -out D:\jboss-4.0.2\server\log\out.log -err D:\jboss-4.0.2\server\log\err.log -current D:\jboss-4.0.2\bin -manual

Did you ever get a resolution to this? I'm seeing the same thing (used JavaService 2.0.9 for our install). The out.log has shows FileNotFoundExceptions for all files our application tries to load...for example...

java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\dev\jboss\JBoss-4.0.3SP1_Tomcat-5.5_SSL\server\ jackson\conf\server.properties"

Notice that there's a space before the word jackson...so it's actually " jackson".

Does anyone have a resolution for this?

FYI, during the install command, we added the following parameter

.... -start org.jboss.Main -params "-c jackson" ....

This will NOT work if we pass any of the following for the -params argument:
"jackson"
"-c jackson"
"-c 'jackson'"

Please help.

Thanks in advance,
Michael

This post is old but hopefully this will help.
I just went through this and your problem is that the -params " -c all" must be broken up into seperate params. It should be -params "-c" "all"

Hope this helps someone. I first got the service installed, but it was using the default server not the "all" server as I needed.

I solved my problem by removing the quotes from the parameter.
