Hello. I was trying to run Hadoop as windows service following the instructions in this site - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1525 - when I realized that there wasn't a file to run the task tracker.
I don't know if I misunderstood something, but in order to get Hadoop working we must also run the task tracker, right? Say, bin/hadoop tasktracker. Consequently, I created two files to get the task tracker running as service too. These files are attached to this e-mail. The InstallServices.bat, and UninstallServices.bat just contain a couple of lines in the end, so the task tracker service will be installed and uninstalled together with the other services already defined by the issue number 1525. Noticed that I had to rename the .bat extension to .bat.xxx, because GMail doesn't allow me to send .bat files. Just rename them! One thing missing is a .bat file to start and stop the task tracker service without the need to use the Windows' service manager interface. Thanks in advance, and keep up the good work! Lucas
