Starting or stopping Tomcat (Windows)

To start or stop Tomcat on a Windows system:

  1. Open the Services window.
    On Windows systems, you can open the Services window in various ways. For Windows 2003, for example, you can complete these steps:
    1. Click Start.
    2. Point to Settings.
    3. Click Control Panel.
    4. Double-click Administrative Tools.
    5. Double-click Services.
  2. Start or stop the Tomcat service.

    If you used the Enterprise Server Installer, the Tomcat service that runs the connector servlets is called Infor Enterprise Server. In the Services window, use the shortcut menu to start or stop this service. To start an inactive Tomcat service, right-click the service and then click Start. To stop an active Tomcat service, right-click the involved service and then click Stop.

    You can also start and stop the Tomcat service through commands in the Start - > All Programs > Infor > ese > apache-tomcat-8.0.21 menu, or through batch files in the <installation-directory>\apache-tomcat-8.0.21\bin directory.
