A couple thoughts:
1) Looking at wildfly-init-redhat.sh at least, I don't see how that
check is actually testing for successful startup. It looks like it's
just trying to delay start() returning for a while, max 30 secs.
So, what purpose is this fulfilling?
My bad about issue background. It's
actually an case in EAP 6 (not yet
in wildfly). EAP 6.x script has launched state like:
https://github.com/jbossas/jboss-eap/blob/6.4.x/build/src/main/resources/...
(not in wildfly's script). Also, console log handler has been removed
only in EAP full-ha mode long time ago due to performance
concern.(wildfly keeps it for the moment). This leads to issue in
bz1224170 <
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1224170>.
That's why I try to seek an better option than current behavior from
wildfly.
2) How does other software solve this problem? If it's solving a valid
problem, it seems like there would be a typical solution.
I have checked some other
application servers, most of them let users
themselves to write a script to run as service for their OS. Geronimo
does provide a script, Although I did damage to its configuration file
to make a fatal error, terminal output still displays "Server started".
In fact, process does not event exist and detail error can be seen in
log file.
