CruiseControl as a windows service

CruiseControl 2.7 comes with a wrapper that enables it to run as a native windows service. However, the default configuration does not start the web HTTP service, only the JMX stuff.

To enable it just edit the existing wrapper.conf in your CruiseControl install directory (C:\Program Files\CruiseControl\wrapper.conf) and add the following lines just below the similar ones:

wrapper.app.parameter.6=-webport
wrapper.app.parameter.7=8080
wrapper.app.parameter.8=-rmiport
wrapper.app.parameter.9=1099

Change 8080 to whatever port you want CC's web server to listen.
