Hi, i wrote the the recent sysv init script :-)
I personally dislike the java service wrapper because: - this prevents the addition of intelligence to the start/stop mechanisms in some ways - this prevents execution on unix platforms which are not supported by the service wrapper (debian s390, arm, solaris, AIX, ....) - this creates additional dependencies Just use the initscript provided by activemq. What is the reason/benefit to use start-stop-daemon? Probably we can add some logic to the init script function invokeJar-Function (https://github.com/apache/activemq/blob/master/assembly/src/release/bin/activemq) Regards Marc Am 25.02.2015 um 05:42 schrieb Kevin Burton: > I was looking at ActiveMQ’s use of ‘wrapper’. > > Does anyone use this? > > http://activemq.apache.org/java-service-wrapper.html > > Why not run just a normal init script ? > > I was playing with start-stop-daemon in Debian and the init script > generator should work with the bin/activemq script we have. > > I built my own Debian packages for ActiveMQ … I was probably going to > rewrite them to use start-stop-daemon … > > Thoughts? > -- GPG encryption available: 0x670DCBEC/pool.sks-keyservers.net
