Running startup/shutdown server scripts from any directory

There is a published technote about how to setup Tomcat to run as a
Windows service. Since Windows services need to be able to run from any
directory the steps to setup the service are the same as what you are
looking for.

The keys points for you would be steps 2 and 7.

Hello,
I see the statement below:

"If you want to run the start and stop scripts from any other
directory, you must change the profiles.ini file in
JazzInstallDir/server/provision_profiles to use an absolute
path."

What is the key for the abosolute path of the startup and shutdown
scripts in the profile.ini file?

Thanks

What it means is that by default the url property in the profile files
is a relative path file based url. e.g.

url=file:./update-site

If you want to run the startup/shutdown scripts from other than the
default (<server>/jazz/server) directory you must modify
the url property value to be an absolute file based url that points to
the relevant update-site directory. For example if you have installed
the jazz server in a directory called rtc then you would change the url
property value to :

url=file:/rtc/jazz/server/update-site

Thanks everyone. I appreciate both replies.
