1. Re: Unable to setup Jboss AS 5 as windows service
peterj Dec 26, 2008 11:36 AM (in response to dominicjpaul)Are you, by any chance, running a 64-bit version of XP? I ask because the service exe that comes with JBoss AS runs only on 32-bit Windows.
If this does not help you, then comment out the echo statement (first line) in service.bat, run it again and post the output. -

dominicjpaul Dec 26, 2008 11:51 AM (in response to dominicjpaul)Thx for quick reply. And I am using Windows XP 32 - bit. Heres the output after removing the first line from service.bat

3. Re: Unable to setup Jboss AS 5 as windows service
peterj Dec 26, 2008 4:34 PM (in response to dominicjpaul)Looks like you are using the 8.3 filename for the JBoss AS home directory. What is the full name? If you replace the 8.3 name with the full name, will it work then?
Try opening a command prompt, cd'ing to the bin directory, and running "jbosssvc.exe". If that fails, try loading josssvc.exe into the Dependency Walker (http://www.dependencywalker.com/); perhaps you are missing a required library. -

dominicjpaul Dec 27, 2008 4:54 AM (in response to dominicjpaul)Tried loading the Jbosssvc.exe into the dependency walker, this is the error message I got "No PE signature found. This file appears to be a 16-bit DOS module."

5. Re: Unable to setup Jboss AS 5 as windows service
peterj Dec 27, 2008 7:51 PM (in response to dominicjpaul)There are two binary downloads for JBoss AS 5.0, one for JDK5 the other for JDK6. I just now checked the jbossvc.exe file in both. Looks like the jbossvc.exe file is corrupt in both of those downloads.
Download JBoss Native 2.0.6 and install it, the jbossvc.exe file in there appears to be fine. http://www.jboss.org/jbossweb/downloads/jboss-native/
Be aware, however, that APR is broke, at least on 32-bit Windows. See this post: http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=147583
