    Description

      The start-scripts "activemq" and "activemq-admin" do not seem to be ready for production use.

      Reasons:

      • Server does not run in background
        => this can be done by redirecting output to a file and run in background
        => in my opinion this should be implemented directly in java
        => the console log should be written by log4j to <install-root>/data/console.log
      • The process should be started on a non-root user
        => use 'su -c "$COMMAND" - $RUN_AS_USER'
        => this should be defined in /etc/activemq.conf
      • The script should support a "reload" feature to reload the configurartion
        (if activemq supports reloading)
      • The script should support a "status" option
        => this should show a quick overview about the state of activemq
        => this should return a value != 0 if the service is not working
        (this is important for cluster integration)

      Does anybody already working on these items?
      Do you have suggestions for a implementation?
