JBoss Native for Windows - and JBoss 4.0.5

[pkelsey]

I checked with Red-Hat/Jboss support, and they said they have no plans to
support the Tanuki wrapper. (which I tried and seems to work fine). However we are going to be using JBoss in a production environment, and
would like a supported wrapper also. The RH engineer reported that in the
future, RH WILL BE supporting the JBoss Native for Windows package. I
downloaded the package, and read the README file. It appears that it will
only work with JBOSS 5.0.0 which is still in beta, and we are not ready to use it. We're on 4.0.5.GA. Is there a version of JBoss Native for Windows that will work with JBoss 4.0.5.GA??

It will work with JBoss 4.0.5. Do this, download the native binary and unzip it to a temp directory. Then copy only these files to the jboss_home/bin directory:

bin/jbosssvc.exe
bin/service.bat
bin/readme-service.txt

That is all you need. The service.bat is used to both set up and run the service. Feel free to edit it to customize it. The jbossvc.exe is the actual service that gets run by Windows. What is does when you start the service is run the service.bat which in turn runs run.bat which in turn runs JBossAS.

Worked like a charm! Thanks a lot Peter!

I have an other question related to the JBoss Native for Windows.
I just installed JBoss as a service but now I can't start it with the parameter -b 0.0.0.0. Where do I have to configure the JBoss Service so that it listens to every adress?
I'm using the version 4.2.3.GA.
Thanks for any help.
