wrapper.ntservice.interactive

Setting the interactive property to true will make it possible for the service to display a GUI and have access to the desktop when run as a service. The default is false, or a non-interactive service.

Example:

    wrapper.ntservice.interactive=false

Due to the way versions of Java prior to 1.4.0 handle the displaying of Windows, their GUI may not be visible when running as an NT service with the interactive property set. To enable the GUI on these JVMs, you will also need to set the wrapper.ntservice.hide_console property to true. Please review the hide_console documentation before setting it.

NOTE MEG

On Windows XP, it is possible for multiple users to be logged in locally at the same time. Windows services only have access to the desktop of the first user.

Desktops created with the Remote Desktop tool do not appear to ever be accessible by interactive services. Other tools which are actually mirroring the local desktop will have access as Windows thinks it is rendering the local desktop.

NOTE MEG |  | This property must be set to FALSE if the wrapper.ntservice.account property is also set.

NOTE MEG |  | Changes to this property will not take effect until the service is reinstalled.
