FW: Tomcat 4 service
I posted this to tomcat-user with no response.
Does such a beast exist? If not I'll volunteer to port the Tomcat 3.2 code.
Just point me at it!

This is my wrapper.properties file.
The biggest change from TC 3.2 was to the cmd_line. I had to change the
class (obviously), add a -Dcatalina.home and add a 'start' command at the
end.
Hope this helps,

I believe that the only change you require is to create a suitable
wrapper.properties, you should be able to use the existing
jk_nt_service.exe.
I had this working a few weeks ago but I tried my existing configuration on
the latest build and the service fails to startup. I am currently in the
process of trying to figure out what the issue is.

Arshad

I'll take a look, but I'm slightly confused (not unusual :-) ) You say above
about non-roots not being able to run Tomcat on port 80. This is NT/W2K
we're talking about right? Or is there some connection between the service
code and *nix?

There is some basic code aimed at allowing the creation of such a beast in
the "service" directory of the source repository. Besides just being able
to start and stop Tomcat as a service, one of the goals is to interact
with the connector startup so we can run Tomcat 4 on port 80 without
having to be root. This will require a couple of changes to the
Connector interface as well as a Tomcat-4 specific version of the service
startup stuff.
It would be great if you wanted to work on this!
