If BeanConnect is installed under Windows, the proxy container is set up as a service with the name BeanConnect65A <proxy_cont_name>
.
By default, the service has the startup type manual
. If required, you can set the startup type to automatic
to ensure that the proxy container is always available.
To start a local proxy container as a service:
From the program group Start - Settings - Control Panel, select the item Administrative Tools - Services.
Select the Start command from the context menu of the service BeanConnect65A <bitmode> <proxy_cont_name>.
You can also start a proxy container as a service using the Management Console (see Starting a proxy ).
When the proxy container executes as a service, its first output to stdout is written to the file utmp.out
and its first output to stderr is written to the file utmp.err
.
If the log files are switched then the files are named utmp.err.<timestamp>
and utmp.out.<timestamp>
. The log files for the last application run are automatically saved in the directory out-err
.
If you start the proxy container as a service, no DOS window is opened for output to stdout or for error messages. You can, however, open windows specially for this purpose. Output is written during operation and is updated automatically (see Number of semaphores in the proxy container ).
To use the proxy container as a Windows service, you must add „<common resources directory>\lib“, "<JDKPATH>\bin" and "<UTMPATH>\ex" to the system environment variable PATH before starting the proxy container.
