Spring-boot 3.2.3 Not working as a windows wrapper service

[rajuperala91]

I have upgraded my Springboot gradle application to 2.7.1 to 3.2.3.

My all applications will run as Windows wrapper services. Before the upgrade everything working fine. after the upgrade, when I started my Windows service giving an attached issue. but when I use Springboot 3.1.9 or below versions it works fine.

Note: It is working fine in Intellij and running as a jar in windows server also working fine. but not as a windows service.

Windows wrapper XML code:

<service>
  <id>serviceID</id>
  <name>name</name>
  <description>description</description>
  <executable>%JAVA_HOME%\bin\java</executable>
  <arguments>-Dname=(xxxxxxxxxxx-serviceid) -Xmx2048M -cp .\* org.springframework.boot.loader.JarLauncher</arguments>
  <logmode>none</logmode>
  <logpath>%BASE%\logs</logpath>
  <startmode>Automatic</startmode>
</service>

@rajuperala91 Thanks for getting in touch. Can you get the logs from the application when it is run was a service and share those?

[rajuperala91]

Logs also not generating. When i start the application service showing attached issue.

[scottfrederick]

@rajuperala91 The Spring Boot 3.2 release notes includes information about changes to the nested jar support. You should either change the launcher in your wrapper XML from org.springframework.boot.loader.JarLauncher to org.springframework.boot.loader.launch.JarLauncher, or leave it as-is and set the loaderImplementation to CLASSIC in your build configuration.

[rajuperala91]

Now the application is up and running. modified this org.springframework.boot.loader.JarLauncher to org.springframework.boot.loader.launch.JarLauncher . Thank you so much for the quick help.
