[JBoss 5][Windows service] run JBoss 5.0.1 as Windows servic

[faxanadu]

Hello.

I managed to run JBoss AS 5.0.1 as Windows service. First the jbosssvc.exe did not work. But thaks to https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBAS-6613, it rocks now.

But, I don't know how to specify parameters like I did when I run JBoss in the console. I need the parameter to choose the server and to configure binding :

run.bat -c myServer -b 0.0.0.0

How can I launch the Windows service which runs JBoss with these params ?

Thanks in advance for yout help.

Thank you. It works.

But isn't there a "cleaner" way to give params than hard coding them in the script ?

I usually make a copy of the service.bat file, say as service_jbas50.bat, and make the changes in there. I also change the script reference on this line:

jbosssvc.exe -imwdc %SVCNAME% "%DIRNAME%" "%SVCDISP%" "%SVCDESC%" service_jbas50.bat

I also don't hard-code the parameters within the statements in the script - instead I set some env vars at the start of the script and use them later. For an example, download the source code for JBoss in Action (http://www.manning.com/jamae), and in jbia-src/ch15 run ant target 04.

Thank you Peter. It works fine.

Indeed, I find that cleaner.

Thank you for your help
