Install the Tomcat package to run as service

irblue

Hi,

I install the Tomcat package in a W2K server, how can I run Alfresco (Tomcat) as a windows service so that it will start automatically whenever the server rebooted ?

I understand that if I install a fresh copy of Tomcat, it will have a option to run it as service, I just don't know how to turn this option on in the Alfresco/Tomcat package.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance !

I have also tried to run Alfresco as a Service in Windows 2003 and used the sc.exe command but when the service starts alf_start.bat, an error message appears:

"Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control requiest in a timely fashion."

My OS: Windows 2003 SP1

Any suggestions?? Well, maybe one of in the dev department will see this post…

On another note, I would like to take some time to thank all the Alfresco team for their great product. I can't wait to see the new features in v1.3.

Cheers

Hi,

After much of fooling around, I'm now able to switch the Alfresco Tomcat package to run as service when Windows starts. Here is what I did :

- Add Windows environmental veriable :

JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_06
OPENOFFICE_PATH=C:\Program Files\OpenOffice.org 2.0\program

- Add scheduled task to run batch file "start_oo.bat" when Windows starts, the file is in C:\Alfresco

- Set the dir.root in repository.properties file, it is located in C:\Alfresco\tomcat\webapps\alfresco\WEB-INF\classes\alfresco\, change it to an absolute path, e.g. dir.root=C:/Alfresco/alf_data

- Add Tomcat service, in C:\Alfresco\tomcat\bin, run the batch file by type in "service install", a "Apache Tomcat" service will be added, change the startup option to automatic.

I think that's it. If there should be other steps to be done, please kindly advise.

Cheers
