I suspect that it might be a bug in commons daemon procrun.
Hmm, I think the problem here is another one. Actually, I think this change didn't break service.bat. When opening a cmd.exe as administrator and use "service install", it still works with 8.0.4 and 7.0.52. I think the problem is, that when a process is elevated by UAC (from normal user-rights to admin-rights), the environment variables of the parent process are lost. My guess would be that the process cannot be a "real" child process of the parent when it has different access rights so it cannot inherit the environment variables (although SysInternals Process Explorer still shows the process as child of cmd.exe). I verified this by creating a simple C# application that outputs an environment variable: Console.WriteLine("%TEST%: " + Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("TEST")); Console.WriteLine("%ComSpec%: " + Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("ComSpec")); When changing the app's manifest so that it requires administrative access: <requestedExecutionLevel level="requireAdministrator" uiAccess="false" /> Then when starting this .exe from cmd.exe, environment variables set in cmd.exe ("TEST", "ComSpec") were lost. The problem happens also with earlier versions of Tomcat, when running service.bat from an non-elevated cmd.exe and then clicking "Yes" on the UAC dialog. (E.g., the service in the service explorer then shows "Tomcat8" instead of "Apache Tomcat 8"). Unfortunately, when writing the comment for bug 56079, I did not check if the service is installed correctly, but only check for the message displayed in the console like "The service Tomcat7 has been installed successfully", so I did not notice the problem. I think currently the only way to correctly install Tomcat as a service when using service.bat is to run cmd.exe as administrator. If it is possible to provide the values as arguments instead of environment variables, then I think it should work when running service.bat from a non-elevated cmd.exe Regards, Konstantin Preißer > > Does "install" command (//IS) in procrun recognize the environment > variables? > > A workaround should be to pass those values as arguments instead of > environment variables. > > Documentation: > http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-daemon/procrun.html > > Steps to reproduce > -------------------------- > With 7.0.52, on Windows 7 > > 1.
