The Servoy Application Server can be started manually or can be run as a service.
For running the Servoy Application server as a service, see Running the server as a service
The Servoy application Server can only be started when it has a connection to a valid Servoy Repository:
- A named server connection with the name 'repository_server' has to exist
- The 'repository_server' server connection needs to point to a database that is up and running
- The 'repository_server' server connection needs to have the correct version of the Servoy Repository
For more information on creating and/or upgrading a Servoy Repository see Servoy Repository upgrade.
To start the Servoy Application Server manually, double click the servoy_server.sh/servoy_server.bat file in the <servoy>/application_server/ directory, or open a command line or Terminal window to the directory and execute the following command:
