[Wrapper-user] Unable to test if service is installed or not under Linux‏

[Gabriel . <the...@us...>]

Hi!

I'm writing to ask a few questions. First of all, I've just read this page:

http://wrapper.tanukisoftware.com/doc/english/launch-nix.html#boot

And i thought it was a good idea to add this feature to the wrapper (I've been using 3.3.9 and this was added on 3.4.0). I had written my own installation / uninstallation / test scripts but they only worked under certain linux distributions. So i thought moving to the official script would be better as I'm pretty sure it is much more stable and gets to a wider range of OS.

However, I just could help noticing it lacks something quite simple that I (and I think other people out there too) are needing. It is the ability to test whether the daemon is installed or not. I think this is not hard to implement as it should be just checking for the existance of certain files. I think the windows service console launcher has this feature.

Is there any workaround to test whether the service is installed or not without installing or removing it using the script you provided in the previous link? If system rights are not needed, the better :)

And my last question, probably more commercial than the previous one, is why is the 64-bit Windows version of the Java Service Wrapper not available for the Community Edition? I guess it is just a commercial matter (which, of course, I would understand) but I wanted to make sure it is. If that is the case, is there any plan to add it to the Community Edition in the future?

I think that's all. Thanks in advance and happy holidays!
