Is Geronimo still actively maintained?
Hello,
with the latest release being 3.0.1 from June 2013 and Wiki still saying
version 2.2 is still under development:
Is Geronimo still actively maintained?
Just a question ...
If yes, where can I find the docs about starting/stopping/etc. it
programmatically?
Kind regards
P.

Hm, as far as I remember, there have been some interesting concepts, but
I never tried Geronimo, as there hadn't been NetBenas support for it
(with the exception of some support by some badly documented plugin for
some very outdated version of Geronimo).
However, without Geronimo, IMO, there's an important piece of
open-source software missing. And this is even more true, as Oracle
seems to have no more (commercial) interest in Glassfish.

Hi Peter,
There is no current development or maintenance of the Geronimo server (none
that I know of, anyway). There has been some interest expressed, but that
has not (yet?) translated into anything concrete.
There is a recent/ongoing discussion on the dev@geronimo.apache.org mailing
list on this general topic: http://www.mail-archive.com/dev%40geronimo.
apache.org/msg94308.html
There is ongoing development / maintenance of Geronimo subprojects (xbean,
java ee specs, javamail, transaction manager, etc.)

Tips to get running geronimo-server:
1. First of all you can make a file with execution privileges at
<geronimo-base-path>/bin called setenv.sh there you can define some
important system values. As an example (running on linux and JDK 1.7):
#!/bin/sh
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.7.0_80
export JRE_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.7.0_80/jre
#assuming you have installed geronimo at /opt/geronimo-3.0
export BASEDIR=/opt/geronimo-3.0
#here you can customize some memory aspects of JVM.
export GERONIMO_OPTS="-Xms512m -Xmx1536m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m
-Djava.awt.headless=true "
# END OF FILE... (don't try with Java 8)
Then you can start geronimo by doing:
./geronimo start
to stop geronimo server (the default user and password - I recommend you
to change it):
./geronimo stop -u system -p manager
If you want to run it as a service, must run the script:
<geronimo-base-path>/bin/register-service
This will create a link with all necesary to run geronimo as a service.
Geronimo is not dead, but is in a standby by now. I see a lot of
future for it, but for sure needs changes to adapt to this new wave with
cloud and all those new technologies coming now, let's see what happens
next months.
