[jira] Commented: (GERONIMO-5040) PermGenSpace Problems and shut-down issues when using the "Apache Commons Daemon" under Windows

["Jack Cai (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-5040?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12804545#action_12804545 ] 

Jack Cai commented on GERONIMO-5040:
------------------------------------

If I rememer correctly, the reason that I didn't use the java mode is because there is a defect in Apache Commons Daemon to detect the java.exe location in some cases. See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAEMON-112.

So to minimize the code difference between the geronimo version and the commons version, I falled back to use the exe mode, which should work. You can add the parameters to set the permgenspace if you want.

For the missing timeout setting, I didn't find that geronimo is killed before it stops gracefully. Maybe there are two few apps on my server.

Anyway, we are expecting that Apache Commons Daemon would do a new release which shall include all the pending patches. So hopefully after that we can update the batch file to use the Java mode.

> Geronimo should - in my optinion - be started in "Java"-Mode. In Java (and the currently used exe-Mode) it is necessary to add all important options directly into the "startup"-"arguments" fields before the "-jar" line, which should be noticed in the Wiki. The issue is related to DAEMON-119.
> At the "shutdown" page, it is necessary to explicitly select the "Java"-Mode and set a timeout (30 seconds or so); otherwise the geronimo server will simply be killed without any chance to terminate gracefully.
