Re: [Wrapper-user] JWS and Geronimo

Leif,

     I was able to get it started by increasing the wrapper.startup.timeout and 
wrapper.startup.delay.service to both be 300.  This seems to have solved the 
problem as far as I can tell.  That along with a bunch of permission type problems.



cheers,

    mehul
