      When starting the server using service.bat, no options were inherited from run.conf.bat. This occurred because service.bat set JAVA_OPTS to a placeholder value, which was not overridden by values set in run.conf.bat due to a faulty check. This issue has been fixed, and options set in run.conf.bat are now used when starting the server with service.bat.

    Description

      If you use service.bat and have your jvm options set in run.conf.bat they will be ignored.

      This happens because service.bat sets %JAVA_OPTS% by

      set JAVA_OPTS=-Xrs

      later on, service.bat uses run.bat which calls run.bat.conf
      in run.bat.conf there is a check to see if %JAVA_OPTS% are set -

      if not "x%JAVA_OPTS%" == "x" goto JAVA_OPTS_SET

      so, if JAVA_OPTS are set it doesn't jump to :JAVA_OPTS_SET
      and the script carries on and sets all the vm parameters at

      rem # JVM memory allocation pool parameters - modify as appropriate.

      set "JAVA_OPTS=-Xms1303m -Xmx1303m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -Dorg.jboss.resolver.warning=true -Dsun.rmi.dgc.client.gcInterval=3600000 -Dsun.rmi.dgc.server.gcInterval=3600000 -Dsun.lang.ClassLoader.allowArraySyntax=true"

      So when using service.bat these parameters get ignored.

      I note that this is mentioned in https://jira.jboss.org/browse/JBNATIVE-59 and the fix for service.bat overwriting %JAVA_OPTS% is in currently in trunk.
