Running ApacheMQ as a Windows service

After downloading/extracting ActiveMQ:

  • open a command window as administrator
  • place the right activemq.xml in conf directory (along with any other related config files like the one describing Camel context)
  • navigate to bin\win64 (do not try the win32 version, the service satrup will fail on x64 Windows)
  • edit wrapper.config by changing the working directory to:
    • wrapper.working.dir=%ACTIVEMQ_BASE%
  • (if not, the working directory will be win64)
  • run InstallService.bat
  • manually start the service (named ApacheMQ)
