Setting Tomcat to run as a service with recovery settings to restart if the service stops.

[Mark Andrews <ma...@cranite.com>]

Hello,
I am looking into some problems we are having with our current
jakarta-tomcat installation running as a service. I need to set the
recovers settings for the service when it fails / crashes. I would like
to set this at install time. Is there any way that you know of to do
this, and or can you point me in the right direction.
 
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks

I have this at the bottom of my startup.bat file:

  :run
  echo.>%CATALINA_HOME%\bin\running.txt
  call "%EXECUTABLE%" run %CMD_LINE_ARGS%
  if exist %CATALINA_HOME%\bin\running.txt goto run

And this at the bottom of my shutdown.bat file:

  if exist %CATALINA_HOME%\bin\running.txt del %CATALINA_HOME%\bin\running.txt
  call "%EXECUTABLE%" stop %CMD_LINE_ARGS%

That way if Tomcat crashes, or stops for any reason other than being stopped by
shutdown.bat, it gets restarted by the startup.bat file.
