Starting Manually in Windows
If you cleared the Install Model Manager Server as a Windows service check box during installation, you can start a Model Manager server manually by doing one of the following:
•
Click the COMSOL Model Manager Server 6.2 shortcut installed on the Start menu.
•
Double-click the Windows® executable in a file browser.
•
Run the Windows® executable from a command window.
The Model Manager server executable is located at:
<Installation directory>\bin\win64\comsolmodelmanagerserver.exe
An example of a typical <Installation directory> is:
C:\Program Files\COMSOL\COMSOL62\ModelManagerServer
For all methods of starting a Model Manager server, the command window displays a short message that the server has started and which port is used. Press Ctrl+C to stop the server and exit the command window.
When a Model Manager server has been installed as a Windows® service, the shortcut for starting manually is not available on the Start menu. It is not recommended to start a Model Manager server manually via its executable when the service is running. Since the service typically runs under a special system user account, it does not share its configuration settings with a Model Manager server that was started manually.
