------------------------------------------------------------
For those looking to use ProcRun to create a windows service, I've attached
install_service_exe.bat
SRV_BIN is prunsrv.exe downloaded from
[https://downloads.apache.org/commons/daemon/binaries/windows/] renamed to
nifi-service.exe and copied into %NIFI_HOME%\bin
Copy install_service_exe.bat file into %NIFI_HOME%\bin as well and run it to
install the service
{code:java}
sc delete nifi-service{code}
can be used to remove the service

> 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
> Priority: Minor
> Time Spent: 10m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> 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?
