"How do I create a Windows service for RapidMiner Server"
-
Open a Windows command prompt as administrator. To do that, open the Windows start menu, search for “cmd”, right-click it and select Run as administrator. In that command prompt, go to the bin folder in your RapidMiner Server installation folder.
-
Type
service.bat install
This should install RapidMiner Server as a Windows service. To uninstall it later, call
service.bat uninstall
-
Unless you modified the service.bat file, the service was registered with the key RMSSVC. To start it from the command prompt, enter
net start RMSSVC
Similarly, to stop it, enter
net stop RMSSVC
Alternatively, use the Windows control panel to do that. There you can also monitor the current state and define whether you want to start the service automatically.
Startup log messages are in the file run.log in the same folder.
