Running JBoss as a service - profile selection

[petraska]

Hello, I am using the JBoss native tool to install a service to start and stop Jboss. However, it attempts to run the default profile, whereas I want it to run the all profile. How do I change this? Cheers.

I have used the JavaServiceWrapper and it works great. In the wrapper.conf file, just add parameters in the Application parameters section:

wrapper.app.parameters.1=org.Jboss.Main
wrapper.app.parameters.2=-c
wrapper.app.parameters.3=<Jboss server name>

In JBoss Native, what I recommend is the following:

1) Make a copy of service.bat as service_XXX.bat (where XXX is the server configuration name)

2) Modify service_XXX.bat, changing the lines to install the service (have it reference the service_XXX.bat file, end of the second line):

:cmdInstall
jbosssvc.exe -iwdc %SVCNAME% "%DIRNAME%" "%SVCDISP%" "%SVCDESC%" service_XXX.bat
@if not errorlevel 0 goto errExplain
echo Service %SVCDISP% installed
goto cmdEnd

and change the start service command to include the XXX configuration:

:cmdStart
REM Executed on service start
call run.bat -c XXX >run.log
goto cmdEnd

Thank you for the responses, I used PeterJ's method and it worked well. Cheers.

hello,
i customized the "service.bat" in a way, PerterJ described.
when starting the service via " net start ", i got the following message:
JBOSS_KIWO PD1 Application Server 4.2 is starting.
JBOSS_KIWO PD1 Application Server 4.2could not be started.
The service did not report an error.
More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 3534.

Any suggestions?

thank you,
marc

ps:
"JBoss 4.2.1.GA" under "Windows 2003 SP2"

If you followed my instructions, there should be a run.log file in the bin directory. What does it contain?

Also, have you tried to manually run service.bat? If so, what does it do?

Finally, what account are you using for the service? Log onto that account and run service.bat manually. What happens?
