Question about files in the `bin` directory

Hello everyone,

The official ActiveMQ tarball (https://archive.apache.org/dist/activemq/5.16.2/apache-activemq-5.16.2-bin.tar.gz) has a "bin" directory. In this "bin" directory, I can see three subdirectories: "linux-x86-32", "linux-x86-64" and "macosx".

Could someone please explain to me what these directories are? I am running ActiveMQ on an Intel 64-bit architecture. Can I remove these directories? Should I keep the "linux-x86-64" directory?

Thanks for your help,

  Fabrice

I have been able to remove these directories, and ActiveMQ starts without error. I didn't do any tests, though...

I also removed the "bin/wrapper.jar" file, and ActiveMQ again starts without error.

Hi Jean-Baptiste,

All right, thank you very much! I suppose I can safely remove the "bin/wrapper.jar" file as well, isn't it?

Best regards,

  Fabrice

Hi Fabrice,

Those directories are only useful if you want to use the wrapper (tanuki service wrapper) to easily integrate in OS.

If you "only" use bin/activemq to start your broker (like bin/activemq console or bin/activemq start), you don’t need these folders.

Hi Fabrice,

Those directories are only useful if you want to use the wrapper (tanuki service wrapper) to easily integrate in OS.

If you "only" use bin/activemq to start your broker (like bin/activemq console or bin/activemq start), you don’t need these folders.
