Re: [Wrapper-user] service was launched, but failed to start

[Leif M. <le...@ta...>]

Dave,
Most likely this is a configuration problem.
The first thing you should do is to run the application in console mode and
verify that it is working there BEFORE trying to install and run it as 
service.

In either mode, you will need to look at the wrapper.log file to see the 
cause of the
problem. If you are running in console mode, this is all visible in the 
console, making
it much easier to debug.

If the problem is not apparent. Then please add the wrapper.debug=true 
property
and rerun your application. I will then need to see the resulting log 
file from a single
JVM run, along with your wrapper.conf file to be able to help out.

Cheers,
Leif
