Re: [Wrapper-user] Confusion about Windows PATH variable

[Hubert F. <Hub...@ab...>]

When wrapper sees that property it takes the  system path and starts
java with -Djava.library.path="" on the commandline.

Try Process Explorer  from
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/Utilities/ProcessExplorer.mspx


Find the concering java.exe  and check the commandline parameter. You
should see if you dblclk the process.

btw.
Windows does not append the path settings of  user Administrator, only
the ones in "System Variables" in the control panel. Did you define it
there?

Yes, I tried setting

wrapper.java.library.path.append_system_path=true

but that only seems to append the system path when the wrapper starts
(I guess) - the JVM started by the wrapper does not, unfortunately,
inherit the system PATH value.. Find below the non-commented lines from
my wrapper.conf:


wrapper.java.command=java

wrapper.java.mainclass=org.tanukisoftware.wrapper.WrapperSimpleApp

wrapper.java.classpath.1=../lib/*.jar
wrapper.java.classpath.2=%CLASSPATH%

wrapper.java.library.path.1=../lib

wrapper.java.additional.1=

wrapper.java.initmemory=64

wrapper.java.maxmemory=1024

wrapper.app.parameter.1=com.eads.df.service.execution.backend.management.RemoteConsole
wrapper.app.parameter.2=-c ../conf/config.xml
wrapper.app.parameter.3=-l ../conf/logging.conf

#********************************************************************
# Wrapper Logging Properties
#********************************************************************
wrapper.console.loglevel=INFO

wrapper.logfile=../logs/wrapper.log

wrapper.logfile.format=LPTM

wrapper.logfile.loglevel=INFO

wrapper.logfile.maxsize=5m

wrapper.logfile.maxfiles=5

wrapper.syslog.loglevel=NONE

#********************************************************************
# Wrapper Windows Properties
#********************************************************************
wrapper.console.title=DataFarmingExecutionBackend

#********************************************************************
# Wrapper Windows NT/2000/XP Service Properties

wrapper.ntservice.name=ExecutionBackend

wrapper.ntservice.displayname=ExecutionBackend

wrapper.ntservice.description=Execution Backend

wrapper.ntservice.dependency.1=Condor
wrapper.ntservice.dependency.2=MySQL

wrapper.ntservice.starttype=AUTO_START

wrapper.ntservice.interactive=false

wrapper.ntservice.account=.\Administrator
wrapper.ntservice.password.prompt=TRUE



Any ideas are still warmly welcome! Thank you,


Thorsten

Did you try:

wrapper.java.library.path.append_system_path=true

in the config file?

I installed a service using a local account (namely Administrator for
testing purposes) and have experienced that afterwards calling

System.getEnv().get("PATH")
(or a system call "set %PATH%" from within my Java application)

returns only the PATH variable exactly as defined in the
Administrator's variables - whereas I would have expected the standard
Windows behavior of appending Administrator's PATH to the system PATH.
Can anyone tell me why this happens when using the service wrapper? Or
is this the default Windows behavior when starting any service using a
local user account?

The problem resulting for my app is that it makes an external system
call to a batch file of a third-party product which, in turn, expects
java.exe to be on the PATH. Now when I start my Java application
manually everything runs fine (since "C:\Windows\system32" is on the
(global system) PATH and JRE copies its java.exe there) but using the
service wrapper it fails because the batch file started from within my
Java app cannot locate java.exe on the PATH (which is now cut down to
the Administrator user PATH).

While I could, of course, include the java home dir to the user PATH or
modify the batch file telling it where to find java, I would not really
want to do this since it implies yet another adjustment to make on any
system where my application will be installed.

Any help is appreciated.
