Hi David,
As I make my way with the removal of various configuration beans I
ran into a problem in the
apacheds-server-tools module. This module uses spring to load the
configuration but it really
does not intend to start the server but rather to read the
configuration to run various utility
commands with that information: i.e. connect to a running instance
to perform operations.
If these commands use Spring to get these objects and they startup
then there will be an
exception due to the server already running and ports being used.
So if Spring starts up
these objects we're in trouble within this module.
Do you have any advice for dealing with this situation?
I have only a vague recollection of looking at this module... IIUC
these are command line commands that connect to a running server and
tell it to do something. IIUC the server can be on a different
machine? Do they need more information about the server than its
host and port? I would think that the specific configuration of a
server might be info we wouldn't want to publish let alone require
for using the tools.... so I wonder what information from server.xml
is actually needed?
thanks
