Marc Schöchlin commented on AMQ-2453:
-------------------------------------
Rewriting shellscript to run with ksh might be real pain - because the
implementation of ksh/sh varies between systems.
(i.e. between K&R and Sun ksh)
/bin/sh does also not provide real portability for complexer functions - the
behavior of /bin/sh varies between systems.
I really think it is no real pain to run this script in bash because bash is
available on all commodity unix-systems.
At least Linux, AIX and Solaris provide a preinstalled bash for years now.
BTW: If there are problems on other platforms i can rewrite the code if you can
send me the debugging output of the shell (bash -x).
The new script is an advantage over the old mechanism because the old mechanism
only supported linux and macos...
> start/control-script is not suitable for professional environments

> Project: ActiveMQ
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Broker
> Affects Versions: 5.3.0
> Reporter: Marc Schöchlin
> Assignee: Dejan Bosanac
> Fix For: 5.4.0
>
> Attachments: activemq, usage-example.txt

> The start-scripts "activemq" and "activemq-admin" do not seem to be ready for
> production use.
> Reasons:
> - Server does not run in background
> => this can be done by redirecting output to a file and run in background
> => in my opinion this should be implemented directly in java
> => the console log should be written by log4j to
> <install-root>/data/console.log
> - The process should be started on a non-root user
> => use 'su -c "$COMMAND" - $RUN_AS_USER'
> => this should be defined in /etc/activemq.conf
> - The script should support a "reload" feature to reload the configurartion
> (if activemq supports reloading)
> - The script should support a "status" option
> => this should show a quick overview about the state of activemq
> => this should return a value != 0 if the service is not working
> (this is important for cluster integration)
> Does anybody already working on these items?
> Do you have suggestions for a implementation?
