#2 nuxwdog is cutting off long ExeArgs resulting in PKI service startup failure

Reopen Issue

When using nuxwdog to start PKI services if the ExeArgs line is too long in nuxwdog.conf it will get cutoff and the service will fail to start. There are no logs produced when this happens.

For example, I have this ExeArgs line:
/usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.8.0_oracle/bin/java -DRESTEASY_LIB=/usr/share/java/resteasy-base -Djava.library.path=/usr/lib64/nuxwdog-jni -Dpentaho.installed.licenses.file=/var/lib/pki/tms-ars-5/.pentaho/.installedLicenses.xml -Xms1g -Xmx3g -Dsun.rmi.dgc.client.gcInterval=3600000 -Dsun.rmi.dgc.server.gcInterval=3600000 -Djavax.net.debug=all -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=None -Djavax.net.ssl.keyStore=None -Djava.awt.headless=true -Dorg.owasp.esapi.resources=/var/lib/pki/tms-ars-5/pentaho/server/pentaho-server/tomcat/webapps/pentaho/WEB-INF/classes -classpath /usr/share/tomcat/bin/bootstrap.jar:/usr/share/tomcat/bin/tomcat-juli.jar:/usr/share/java/commons-daemon.jar -Dcatalina.base=/var/lib/pki/tms-ars-5 -Dcatalina.home=/usr/share/tomcat -Djava.endorsed.dirs= -Djava.io.tmpdir=/var/lib/pki/tms-ars-5 -Djava.util.logging.config.file=/var/lib/pki/tms-ars-5/conf/logging.properties -Djava.util.logging.manager=org.apache.juli.ClassLoaderLogManager -Djava.security.manager -Djava.security.policy==/var/lib/pki/tms-ars-5/conf/catalina.policy org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap start

Using strace, you can see that when java is called not all of the parameters are passed:
execve("/usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.8.0_oracle/bin/java", ["/usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.8.0_oracle/bin/java", "-DRESTEASY_LIB=/usr/share/java/resteasy-base", "-Djava.library.path=/usr/lib64/nuxwdog-jni", "-Dpentaho.installed.licenses.file=/var/lib/pki/tms-ars-5/.pentaho/.installedLicenses.xml", "-Xms1g", "-Xmx3g", "-Dsun.rmi.dgc.client.gcInterval=3600000", "-Dsun.rmi.dgc.server.gcInterval=3600000", "-Djavax.net.debug=all", "-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=None", "-Djavax.net.ssl.keyStore=None", "-Djava.awt.headless=true", "-Dorg.owasp.esapi.resources=/var/lib/pki/tms-ars-5/pentaho/server/pentaho-server/tomcat/webapps/pentaho/WEB-INF/classes", "-classpath", "/usr/share/tomcat/bin/bootstrap.jar:/usr/share/tomcat/bin/tomcat-juli.jar:/usr/share/java/commons-daemon.jar", "-Dcatalina.base=/var/lib/pki/tms-ars-5", "-Dcatalina.home=/usr/share/tomcat", "-Djava.endorsed.dirs=", "-Djava.io.tmpdir=/var/lib/pki/tms-ars-5", "-Djava.util.logging.config.file=/var/lib/pki/tms-ars-5/conf/logging.properties", "-Djava.util.logging.manager=org.apache.juli.ClassLoaderLogManager", "-Djava.security.manager", "-Djava.security.policy==/var/lib/pki/tms-ars"], [/ 26 vars /]) = 0

The above is missing "/conf/catalina.policy org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap start"

When using "pki-server-nuxwdog" to create the nuxwdog.conf it will concatanate the JAVA_OPTS line from . /etc/sysconfig/$NAME which creates the long line.

Is it possible to update nuxwdog to allow for a much longer ExeArgs line to be processed?

Allow unlimited conf line length
Errors occurred because the line length was being truncated,
especially for long lines like JVM args.  Now the line length
will be allocated correctly.
