Kai Hudalla commented on AMQ-1830:
----------------------------------

Actually, that is not true since the binaries included in the distro are indeed platform specific, i.e. there are bat files included in the Win32 distribution whereas there are shell scripts included in the unix distribution. Additionally, there are real binaries included compiled for the particular platform for e.g. starting/stopping active mq as a separate process ...

>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 5.1.0
>         Environment: multi=platform
>            Reporter: ajbanck
>             Fix For: 5.3.0

> From apache-activemq-5.1.0-bin.tar.gz all Windows related resources are missing.
> From apache-activemq-5.1.0-bin.zip all Unix related resources are missing.
> For 5.0.0 the binary distribution was complete, so you can use any distribution to package ActiveMQ to work on any platform 
> As there is no overlap in files there is no need to have different distributions. The same set of files should be packaged for all platforms. Only the encoding (zip/tar.gz) should differ.
> This is hard for distribution as the binary packages are incomplete. Linux users picking the zip find out the product is not working.
