---------------------------------
Summary: Cannot use nifi.cmd to start nifi process in the
foreground
Key: NIFI-14458
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-14458
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core Framework
Affects Versions: 2.3.0
Environment: Windows 10, java 21
Reporter: Phil Dicke
The current nifi.cmd script, cannot be used to start nifi in the foreground.
The script checks for the "start" command and launches the process in the
background.
While this is convenient for using a typical shell user, it does not work for
integrating the Apache ProcRun (
[https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-daemon/procrun.html] ) and running
the application as a Windows Service using exe mode.
Obviously, I can just copy and edit nifi.cmd to start the processes in the
foreground, but I would prefer a more elegant solution.
I'm proposing that I add a new command "startfg" to the nifi.cmd that will
start the nifi process in the foreground. I'd like to get some feedback before
I implement this. Is there a better option?
