Java Service Wrapper Tutorial
YAJSW is a java centric implementation of the java service wrapper by tanuki (JSW). It aims at being mostly configuration compliant with the original. It should therefore be easy to. The usual Java Hello World application starts up, prints out Hello World and then exits. That is not very interesting to show off a tool for running and monitoring services. In the case of the Java Service Wrapper, an example which can be installed and then stay running as a Windows Service, or UNIX daemon is required.
I have simply donwloaded JSW community edition, unwrapped into a directory: c:servicetest
So here i have a bin, conf, lib and log subdirs, among others.From now on this will be (root).
I referenced the (root)/lib/wrapper.jar into my ide (netbeans) and create a very simple service (remember the class name is Main):
As you see, it basically does nothing but logging a message. But actually it neither starts.
I compiled the project (MyProject.jar), copied the jar into the (root) directory and modified the (root)/config/wrapper.conf adding:
and
Then i've installed the service in command line, with:
then i've started the service, either via services.msc control panel or via
In logs/wrapper.log i get:

UPDATE 1
Following Tanuki Software advice, i've set in my (root)/config/wrapper.conf (well, uncommented since it already was):

And now i get this:
But given my very simple implementation, i cannot guess what is going wrong.

rather than extending WrapperSimpleApp, your main class should implement the org.tanukisoftware.wrapper.WrapperListener interface.
You can find a very detailed description about implementing the interface on our website:http://wrapper.tanukisoftware.com/doc/english/integrate-listener.html
Please let me know if you have any further questions about the implementation and/or the configuration properties in your conf file.
Another advise which comes in handy for me sometimes, is rather than running your application immediately as service, I find it easier to do the integration by running first as console application, because you can see the output directly on your console. Once everything seems working, I go ahead and install/run as service. To run as console application, you would run for example:
You can also turn on debug output for the Wrapper by setting
in your conf file.

Edit due to the comment:
if your application is actually as simple as you describe, then just write your application as normal Java application without any Wrapper API parts.
You can use the WrapperSimpleApp to run your application out of the box with codeless integration into the Wrapper.
All you need to do is set the following properties in your conf file:
With this configuration, the Wrapper will be able to run your application as windows service.

I'm not sure what your code exactly looks like, but it seems you are calling WrapperManager.stop() in your main class..

Following the initial example class, I have modified the class, so it is not using any Wrapper-API (which for an simple application is not necessary):
After compile and creating the jar, the necessary properties in the conf file are:
