I haven't used the first option on that page (using JavaService), but we do use the second option (Java Service Wrapper) in the Windows installer. The Java Service Wrapper places it's own wrapper log under %JBOSS_HOME%/logs/wrapper.log by default, so that might be helpful when setting it up the first time. The instructions at http://wrapper.tanukisoftware.org/doc/english/integrate-simple-win.html pretty much cover it, but we also have a sample config file here - http://www.lamsinternational.com/documentation/LAMS%201.0.2%20Manual%20Installation.html. (it's a LAMS 1 page, but for the purposes of the wrapper the setup is the same).

If you run into problems with the Java Service Wrapper, post the wrapper.conf/wrapper.log, and we can go from there.

Thanks.

When I followed the directions JBOSS is started and LAMS runs fine but I don't see "LAMS (JBoss App Server)" as a Service. And when I log out it brings down JBOSS.

Attached are the conf and log files.

Thanks again for your help.

Best,

How are you starting the wrapper/lams? When it starts up in the log, it says 'Starting as Console', when it should say 'Starting as Service'. If it's not installed yet as a service, you can do that by double-clicking a premade batch file called (I think) Jboss-NT-Install.bat - or something similarly named. Or, on the command line, run

wrapper.exe -i /path/to/wrapper.conf

Hi. Thanks.

Running the NT-Install.bat fixed the problem. The documentation in http://wrapper.tanukisoftware.org/doc/english/integrate-simple-win.html
stated

JBoss can now be run by simply executing the bin\JBoss.bat script.

and failed to state the obvious that after testing it to run the install batch file. Sorry to have troubled you.

Thanks again.

Best,
