All the web Getting Started instructions as well as the new Manning book on

        bin/activemq

from the main installation directory.

My newbie experience, using 5.4.1 indicates that this does not actually
start the activemq broker but that entering the command

        bin/activemq start

does start the broker.

Is this the new functionality or am I missing something?

The start script for ActiveMQ changed in the 5.4 release so that it
now requires a parameter. If you run the script without an argument it
prints out the help which shows all the available parameters. To start
the broker in the foreground, use the 'start' parameter. To start the
broker in the background, use the 'console' parameter.

Thanks, Bruce.

I guess it was from that help that I learned about the start parameter.

Will the web documentation be updated to reflect this? And will the book also be revised before publication?
