[jboss-user] [Installation, Configuration & DEPLOYMENT] - Starting JBoss as a Service on Windows XP has an issue

[parag.goyal]

Hi All,
I have installed JBoss4.2.2 as a service on Windows XP . So that we can start or stop JBoss AS as a window service. I faced problem that whenever trailing backslash ("\") appears at the end of value of PATH (PATH in "system variables" not in "user variables") 

For e.g. 

PATH =%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;C:\MSSQL7\BINN;C:\PROGRA~1\ULTRAE~1;C:\Program Files\CA\Unicenter Software Delivery\BIN;C:\Lang\JProbe 7.0\bin\ 


JBoss will not start as a windows service.
 
As per my observation its a bug of service wrapper of JBoss4.2.2  "jbosssvc.exe"


JBoss 4.2.2 AS starts well as a service if value of PATH( system variable) is without backslash "\" at the end. 

like below :

PATH =%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;C:\MSSQL7\BINN;C:\PROGRA~1\ULTRAE~1;C:\Program Files\CA\Unicenter Software Delivery\BIN;C:\Lang\JProbe 7.0\bin 

Run.log is shown below when JBoss 4.2.2 AS is not able to start as a service:

Please help me to fix this issue,if there is any other solution please suggest me.

Thanks in Advance
