Start Bedework
- Open two console windows and cd to the quickstart directory in each.
- For each console, set JAVA_HOME environment variable. For example:
- Linux: export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.6.0_16
- Windows: set JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_16
- Mac OS X: export JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/libexec/java_home)
- Enter the following, one command line per console:
- Console 1: ./bw -quickstart dirstart ← Starts ApacheDS ldap directory server for Bedework on port 10389
- Console 2: ./startjboss or ./startjboss -debug ← Starts Bedework core services in JBoss on port 8080 (and several others). Add -debug to increase the amount of information logged.
Windows Users:
Throughout this manual, you can replace all commands of the form “./command” with “command” or “command.bat”. For example, to start Bedework's directory server, enter: “bw -quickstart dirstart”.
Memory settings:
JVM settings can be passed as parameters to this script: enter "startjboss -usage" or see "Reviewing JVM parameters" for more information. If JBoss has difficulty coming up, try decreasing the heap size, e.g. ./startjboss -heap 512M
