Re: [Wrapper-user] win32 service doesn't log

It was indeed a permissions issue.  After changing the service account
to be one of the administrators on the machine, the logging worked
correctly.  One of the parent directories had denied SYSTEM access, so
it wasn't immediately obvious.

Thank you for your quick and insightful reply, Leif.

Brandon,
For the log4j problem.  This is working with this exact same
configuration that works on other machines?  Usually there is a
reference to a log4j properties file in the wrapper.java.additional.n
section.  It might be in one of your application jar files however.

Because both your log4j and wrapper.log files are failing to write to
the disk, I am wondering if you have some kind of file permissions set
on the application directory.   The service is running as the SYSTEM
directory which will not have the same permissions as a regular user.
If the Wrapper fails to write to the configured directory, it will
attempt to write to current working directory.  On startup, this will
be the windows system directory when running as a service.   Can you
please search under C:\windows for a wrapper.log file?  That might
give us some more clues.

Your classpath declaration contains the log4j jar twice.  That should
matter though.
wrapper.java.classpath.11=lib/log4j-1.2.15.jar
wrapper.java.classpath.16=lib/log4j-1.2.15.jar

Also, you can simplify your classpath declaration as follows.  This
makes it a lot easier to maintain and will get rid of mistakes like
the one above:
wrapper.java.classpath.1=lib/jaxb/*.jar
wrapper.java.classpath.2=lib/*.jar
wrapper.java.classpath.3=resources

Cheers,
Leif
