Running the Product

To run WSO2 products, you start the product server at the command line. This page describes how to start and stop the product in the following sections: 

Starting the server

To start the server, you run the script wso2server.bat (on Windows) or wso2server.sh (on Linux/Solaris) from the bin folder. Alternatively, you can install and run the server as a Windows service.

1. Open a command prompt:
• On Windows, choose Start -> Run, type cmd at the prompt, and press Enter.
• On Linux/Solaris, establish a SSH connection to the server or log in to the text Linux console.
2. Execute one of the following commands, where <ELB_HOME> is the directory where you installed the product distribution:
• On Windows: <ELB_HOME>/bin/wso2server.bat --run

• On Linux/Solaris: sh <ELB_HOME>/bin/wso2server.sh


  For additional options you can use with these startup commands, type -help after the command, such as: sh <PRODUCT_HOME>/bin/wso2server.sh -help

   

The operation log appears. When the product server is running, the log displays the message "WSO2 Carbon started in 'n' seconds."

Stopping the server

To stop the server, press Ctrl+C in the command window.
