Windows support (Win-64)
Does ZooKeeper is supported on Windows (Win-64). When I searched through
the mailing list, I found
http://search-hadoop.com/m/pyVQoOgNQc/windows&subj=ZooKeeper+on+Windows
As per this discussion, there is no restriction/limitation as such. But
documentations claims "development only" support on Windows(Win-32).
http://zookeeper.apache.org/doc/trunk/zookeeperAdmin.html#sc_supportedPlatforms
Should this be a documentation fix?

We had to make some changes to get the C client to compile with 64 bits on
Windows. I'll post our findings when I have chance.

This is us being our typical conservative selves. ;-) afaik there is no
reason it should work on windows. I think our main concern has been having
folks actually using it on windows and reporting back good experiences (any
windows reports at all have been limited so far) and also having enough
community members interested in windows such that when an issue does come up
there will be someone willing/interested/able to resolve the issue.

recently few efforts has been taken to stabilize Jenkins(Windows) and is in
progress. I think this will give more confidence to all.

Re: Windows support (Win-64)
Posted by Salabhanjika S <sa...@gmail.com>.
Back from long vacation today. I'll take a look at windows build/test failures.
Also, how about having a parent JIRA to have all outstanding issues on

Ah, no, I think that's just ZookeeperNet which I'm already using (but I have the issues forcing session expiry as I mentioned in another mail). Apart from that issue it seems really solid though, so I'll probably stick with that for now.

Posted by Be...@sungard.com.
Will do! We're interested in using it from .NET, but the primary point is to get the server supported, and then we can choose our method of access from .NET (e.g. wrap the C client or use the ZookeeperNet package etc)

Re: Windows support (Win-64)
Posted by Patrick Hunt <ph...@apache.org>.
Hi Ben, if you were interested to help drive windows support that
would be great. I'd be happy to help support. Note that Michi has been
doing work on this already, you probably have seen that on the ML
archive and the JIRA. I suggest you look there if you want to get more
insight into activity/progress.
In terms of what you might do, take a look a our CI env
https://builds.apache.org/view/S-Z/view/ZooKeeper/
notice that we have three builds running on windows, some with vs2008
Likely you'd want to run the same but in your environment, probably on
3.4.5 release
It would be great if you could enter JIRAs/patches for the things you
find. If you're "comfortable" at some point then I don't see why we
couldn't update the docs and make it official in an upcoming release.
Regards,
Patrick

RE: Windows support (Win-64)
Posted by Be...@sungard.com.
We would certain be interested in helping giving feedback on the server stability on Windows. I'm trying to push for increased adoption of Zookeeper in the org, but the message in the docs itself puts off my managers a bit from pushing full ahead, so it's a bit of a chicken and egg situation. If there are test suites we can run to help you out I can look at running them here on Windows...
Thanks,
Ben

Re: Windows support (Win-64)

Patrick, I got more confused by your statement. Did you mean "no reason it
should *NOT* to work on Windows"? I will be very happy if that is what you
meant.
I can say at least 3 of my clients (past & current) asked for Windows
support. Though I don't see a reason for *NOT TO WORK* on Windows, I could
not confidently convince them due to official (read conservative as Pat
mentioned) limitation in documentation (Admin guide).
I agree on our concerns w.r.to community usage and support.
IMHO, we should remove this limitation (in worst case for Server and Java
based Clients) immediately from Admin guide and work on issues w.r.to other
clients.
Just for information only.
Hortonworks claims they will be supporting(in NEAR future release)
distribution on Windows as well.

This is us being our typical conservative selves. ;-) afaik there is
no reason it should work on windows. I think our main concern has been
having folks actually using it on windows and reporting back good
experiences (any windows reports at all have been limited so far) and
also having enough community members interested in windows such that
when an issue does come up there will be someone
willing/interested/able to resolve the issue.

Hi Salabhanjika,
I've used zk client(java) in windows platform during development phase. I personally feel, java server and java clients would work well in windows environment and there will not be much issues. But truly speaking I haven't tested thoroughly (java)zk server in windows platform. Adding one more, recently few efforts has been taken to stabilize Jenkins(Windows) and is in progress. I think this will give more confidence to all.

Added a comment in this issue too.
I interpret above jira as, C Client issue for Win-64 alone. If that is the case, should it more clear from documentation (admin guide).
- Windows (win32 & win64) is supported as a *development and production
platform* for both server and client (java client only). ZK-1635 reference can be provided here.
Rationale behind this proposal is to bring more confidence to ZooKeeper users on Windows.
