No init scripts or native sources in -bin distribution?
I just downloaded the 1.5 RC3 tarball from
https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapacheaccumulo-007/org/apache/accumulo/accumulo/1.5.0/accumulo-1.5.0-bin.tar.gz,
and was surprised to not find the init installer scripts (for example
stand-alone-init.sh) or the native library *.cpps anywhere in the tree. Is
there some different artifact I should be using for "everything I need to
install and run accumulo"?
Thanks,
Michael

Mostly, oversight, when trying to make all the binary packages produce
the same thing. They weren't deliberately excluded. If you say they
work well, then I have no reason to exclude them, other than
time/effort/priorities reasons, at best.

I think those scripts should be includes. They are useful and they do work
on both RHEL based and debian based systems. What was the reasoning for not
including them in the bin release?

We've been discussing on the user list whether to include source for
native maps in the binary tarball. The consensus is slowly going
towards that we should do so, and may end up in RC4.
There are init scripts in the source tarball (assemble/scripts). They
may or may not work well. We've discussed using supervisor,
commons-daemon, or jsw, or something similar to support cross-platform
service startup/monitoring, but that wasn't a planned feature for 1.5.
If they do need to be included, I think it should be discussed, as
there is a risk associated with packaging that looks like it will work
out of the box, but really doesn't.
