Auto Startup Windows?

PostPosted: Tue Sep 10, 2013 6:16 pm

I've gotten the OMERO.server up and running as well as the OMERO.web, and I was wondering how would I go about getting this automated so whenever Windows is rebooted due to patches or whatever the OMERO.server and OMERO.web start up fine.

I've checked under the Windows Servcies and I find the OMERO.master, which is set to manual startup, if I could change that to automatic if that would solve part or all of what I wanted.

Thanks.

Hi Jon,

To automate the OMERO.server service startup on system boot time, it is indeed needed to change the OMERO.server Windows Service startup mode from "Manual" to "Automatic". Looking at http://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/supp ... tools.html I feel it will be worthwhile to update the documentation and add that service setting change.

OMERO.web is a different type of service - as it is run inside a Windows IIS instance. If Windows is set up with IIS, then any deployed web application will be started at boot time.http://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/supp ... l-web.html describes how to deploy OMERO.web in IIS. If you are using a different web server, then the only step needed to have OMERO.web autostart is having the web server to autostart with Windows.

Kind regards,
