I followed this process for both james files CONF/jmx.access and
jmx.password but the same message occurs when I try to start james using
run.bat
Do I restrict access to my userid only (for when I start with run.bat) ?
Will that work ok when the james service attempts to start ?
Are these the only files that need permissions set ?
I see that there seems to be jmx access control files in
[JRE_HOME}/lib/management - are there any changes needed here ?
I'm tempted to try disabling username/password for jmx but I could not find
any info on that on the Oracle website ......
Thanks
Gerry

Hi Gerry,
see:
http://james.apache.org/server/3/configuration.html
You need to restrict the file access on the jmx access/pass files on
windows or disable username/password stuff for jmx.
Bye,

Hi there.
I've been trying to start the M1 james 3 without success on MS Windows
server 2003 with java 1.6u22 jdk.
------------------------------------------------
When I install the windows service with no changes to any CONF files the
startup fails with no log output either to the james log files or to the
windows event log (other than the useless message "service failed to
start"]
My dos window is:
Microsoft Windows [Version 5.2.3790]
(C) Copyright 1985-2003 Microsoft Corp.
C:\s\james-3\bin>james install
wrapper | Apache James Server Container Spring installed.
C:\s\james-3\bin>james start
wrapper | Starting the Apache James Server Container Spring service...
wrapper | Waiting to start...
wrapper | Waiting to start...
wrapper | Waiting to start...
wrapper | Waiting to start...
wrapper | The Apache James Server Container Spring service was launched,
but failed to start.
Press any key to continue . . .
Are we supposed to be able to start james 3 without making any changes ?
-----------------------------------------------
My first attempt was after making changes to the collection of XML files
in CONF and attempting to start with those files.
When I tried to start james with those files, the windows event log
showed one error "Error: Password file read access must be restricted:
../conf/jmx.password" which surprised me.
That's when I decided to try starting james with no configuration
changes - just as released in the binary zip file.
I have not attempted to carry over any of my james 2.3.2 data to version
3. I've made sure that the james 2 service is stopped before trying to
start james 3.
I'm stuck for ideas now.
