The contents from service.bat that i posted were from an older version of JBossNative. For the version you are using, the service.bat has to be edited as follows: :cmdStart | REM Executed on service start | del .r.lock 2>&1 | findstr /C:"being used" > nul | if not errorlevel 1 ( | echo Could not continue. Locking file already in use. | goto cmdEnd | ) | echo Y > .r.lock | jbosssvc.exe -p 1 "Starting %SVCDISP%" > run.log | call run.bat < .r.lock -b 0.0.0.0 >> run.log 2>&1 | ..... | ...... | some more lines from the bat file | | .... | .... | :cmdRestart | REM Executed manually from command line | REM Note: We can only stop and start | echo Y > .s.lock | jbosssvc.exe -p 1 "Shutting down %SVCDISP%" >> shutdown.log | call shutdown -S < .s.lock >> shutdown.log 2>&1 | del .s.lock | :waitRun | REM Delete lock file | del .r.lock > nul 2>&1 | REM Wait one second if lock file exist | jbosssvc.exe -s 1 | if exist ".r.lock" goto waitRun | echo Y > .r.lock | jbosssvc.exe -p 1 "Restarting %SVCDISP%" >> run.log | call run.bat < .r.lock -b 0.0.0.0 >> run.log 2>&1 | View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4161951#...
