Re: [Wrapper-user] Wrapper.exe and process id

[Christian M. <chr...@ta...>]

Hello Jim,

If your monitoring tool needs a pid of the Wrapper (and Java) process, you
could also use the wrapper.pidfile and wrapper.java.pidfile.
With this properties set, the Wrapper, which runs as service will write the
PID of itself and the JVM to the specified files.

Another option on querying the Wrapper would be using the '--query' call of
the Wrapper binary:
bin\wrapper -q ../conf/wrapper.conf

Please let me know if you need any further information.

Thank you,

Christian
