A Note about Database Servers

The Servoy Application Server requires a database in order to operate. The The repository_server connection is required or the Application Server will not start.

In a default installation of Servoy, the the repository_server connection is already configured to the database provided with Servoy. When Servoy Developer is started, this database is also started automatically.

For versions of Servoy that use PostGreSQL, the database is stopped when Developer closes. To start the database via command line, navigate to the the application_server directory and run the following command:

postgres_db\bin\pg_ctl start -D database -l postgres_db\postgres_log.txt
