Win32 module for 64 bit tomcat service

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello All, Greetings! I have installed tomcat-7 64 bit version on windows server 2008 R2-64 bit OS. now I want to manage my tomcat service using perl i.e. start, stop and restart options using perl scripts. I am able to stop it and start it but when I restart it, perl win32 module is not able to get the status of service. What could be possible resolution of this? Why this is happening? Any thoughts? Thanks in advance!

Hi, I believe Tomcat stores its own PID on startup when you call the apropriate shutdown.bat it kills the correct process, I would suggest you simply run `syatem('c:\path\to\shudown.bat');` `print "Good ",qw(night morning afternoon evening)[(localtime)[2]/6]," fellow monks."`	[reply] [d/l] [select]
