[jira] Reopened: (AMQ-2453) start/control-script is not suitable for professional environments

["Marc Schöchlin (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/AMQ-2453?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Marc Schöchlin reopened AMQ-2453:
---------------------------------


With activemq 5.4.1 the new initscript is part of the activemq distribution.

There are still parts of the old start/control-script infrastructure for unix/linuxmacos systems 
included in the activemq delivery.

This should be removed, because this confuses activemq-users.

Distribution should not contain the follwing folders/files:

apache-activemq-5.4.1/bin/activemq-admin : All functionality of bin/activemq-admin is implemented in bin/activemq
apache-activemq-5.4.1/bin/linux-x86-32 : This is only needed for jsw
apache-activemq-5.4.1/bin/linux-x86-64 : This is only needed for jsw
apache-activemq-5.4.1/bin/macosx       : This is only needed for jsw
apache-activemq-5.4.1/bin/wrapper.jar  : This is only needed for jsw

In my current work-environment admins and developers were confused of having two different start environments  - i think
it´s a good idea to cleanup the distribution.

Marc

> The start-scripts "activemq" and "activemq-admin" do not seem to be ready for production use.
> Reasons:
> - Server does not run in background
>   => this can be done by redirecting output to a file and run in background
>   => in my opinion this should be implemented directly in java
>   => the console log should be written by log4j to <install-root>/data/console.log
> - The process should be started on a non-root user 
>   => use 'su -c "$COMMAND" - $RUN_AS_USER' 
>   => this should be defined in /etc/activemq.conf
> - The script should support a "reload" feature to reload the configurartion
>   (if activemq supports reloading)
> - The script should support a "status" option
>   => this should show a quick overview about the state of activemq
>   => this should return a value != 0 if the service is not working
>      (this is important for cluster integration)
> Does anybody already working on these items?
> Do you have suggestions for a implementation?
