Running as an Application

The optiSLang Web Service can be started as a regular application without deploying it as service or daemon. This can be useful when debugging, testing, or running the service for a single user.

Windows

  1. As an administrative user, open a command prompt.

  2. Switch to the optiSLang installation directory.

  3. Run one of the following commands:

    manage_web_service.bat -e

    or

    start_web_service.bat
  4. Minimize the command prompt, but do not close it. Closing the command prompt stops the web service.

Linux or Unix

  1. As an elevated or root user, open a terminal.

  2. Switch to the optiSLang installation directory.

  3. Run one of the following commands:

    manage_web_service -e

    or

    start_web_service
  4. Minimize the terminal window, but do not close it. Closing the terminal window stops the web service.
