Bug #: 52243
Summary: Documentation of Service-Installer missing one
information
Product: Tomcat 7
Version: unspecified
Platform: PC
Status: NEW
Severity: trivial
Priority: P2
Component: Documentation
AssignedTo: dev@tomcat.apache.org
ReportedBy: ckuetb...@googlemail.com
Classification: Unclassified
The documentation of the windows service installier is missing one information.
If one wants to create a service with a sepified PATH, it may not work:
Citadation from the documentation:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/windows-service-howto.html
List of environment variables that will be provided to the service in the form
key=value. They are separated using either # or ; characters.
Original documentation:
http://commons.apache.org/daemon/procrun.html
List of environment variables that will be provided to the service in the form
key=value. They are separated using either # or ; characters. If you need to
embed either # or ; character within a value put them inside single quotes.
The last part is important, but missing:
"If you need to embed either # or ; character within a value put them inside
single quotes."
The ';' is the windows path-seperator-char and the path has to be masked by '
if it contains more than one directory.
This is missing in 5.5 and 6.0 as well.
