Starting and Stopping FME Server Manually

ClosedWindows

Although the FME Server System Services start automatically, you can start and stop the services manually in the following ways:

  • From the Services window (the procedure for accessing the services may vary by Windows version):

    • Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services

    Or

    Start > Run > services.msc

    In the Services window, select one or more of the services, and start or stop as required.

Note: On Windows 8, you must be running as Administrator to start or stop the FME Server System Services.

ClosedLinux

Linux scripts for starting and stopping FME Server are located in:

<FMEServerDir>/Server/

Although you can configure FME Server to start automatically, you can start it manually by running startServer.sh as the root user.

This script starts all the FME Server System Services in the necessary order. Alternatively, to start each service individually, run the following scripts, located in the same directory:

  • startCore.sh: FME Server Core service
  • startEngines.sh: FME Engines
  • startDatabaseServer.sh: FME Server Database
  • startApplicationServer.sh: FME Server Web Application Server
  • startWebSocketServer.sh: FME Server WebSocket Server
  • startCleanup.sh: FME Server Cleanup service
  • startRootServices.sh - Starts all the services that run as the root user. This script calls startWebSocketServer.sh, startCleanup.sh, and startApplicationServer.sh.

To stop FME Server, run stopServer.sh as the root user.

Alternatively, stop the services individually with these scripts:

  • stopCore.sh
  • stopEngines.sh
  • stopDatabaseServer.sh
  • stopApplicationServer.sh
  • stopWebSocketServer.sh
  • stopCleanup.sh
  • stopRootServices.sh
