Retrieve server status from commandline

[Jan Vandieken]

Hi

I am currently trying to automate the start & deployment for a application running on IBM WAS CE (which uses the Geronimo).

Now I am strugelling to figure out a way to detect from the windows commandline when the server has been started sucessfully.

For the user this is ovious, once the cmd-line says server started. But how can I script that to wait with the deployment step until the server has been started?

Is there any command like serverstatus.bat or shutdown.bat --status I might use? Is there maybe an existing class in a jar file I could call to obtain the proper status of the server?

I saw this discussion in the developer mailing list:
http://www.mail-archive.com/dev@.../msg58189.html
Have there been any improvements so far?

Thanks
Jan

Can you please open a JIRA on this issue?

There is no such command line tool right now but there is some
existing Java code that might help you with getting the server status.
Take a look at org.apache.geronimo.commands.ServerProxy in
geronimo-commands module. You should be able to do the following
(roughly):

ServerProxy proxy = new ServerProxy("localhost", 1099, "system", "manager");
while(!proxy.isFullyStarted()) {
  Thread.sleep(1000 * 10);
}
// if you are here, the server is fully started

You could also look at the geronimo-maven-plugin, the geronimo:start-
server goal does wait for the server to be started before allowing  
builds to continue.  This is what we use in our testsuite to automate  
start/deploy operations.

I am trying to do the same.

But I can not locate the org.apache.geronimo.commands.ServerProxy class or the "geronimo-commands" module. Where can I find it? WasCE is bundled with Geronimo v1.1.0.0. Is this why I can not find it?

Yes, the server proxy and the commands module are part of geronimo 2.1  
(maybe 2.0.2, not sure).  They are definitely not in geronimo 1.x.  
WASCE isn't exactly bundled "with" geronimo, it contains a modified  
version of parts of geronimo.  The WASCE version numbers do correspond  
to some extent with the geronimo version numbers, but not exactly (for  
instance they have more components than the geronimo version numbers).
