Apache Geronimo provides several tools for administering the server. These tools are available via command line and some via a Web based console. The Web based Geronimo console is explained in detail in the following section Geronimo Administration Console. The currently available command line tools are located in the <geronimo_home>/bin directory and are enumerated in the following list:

...

This command is certainly used to start the Apache Geronimo server. You can start the Apache Geronimo server in two different ways by running the following commands:

<java<geronimo_home>/bin/java -jar server.jar

or simply

<geronimo_home>/bin/startup

The startup command invokes the server.jar.

In both cases this command accepts the same parameters. The available parameters are:

...

-vv --veryverbose
Sets the console log level to DEBUG, resulting in even more console output.

 *\-override \[**_configId_**\]*
Overrides the configurations in *<geronimo_home>/var/config.list* such that only the configurations listed on the command line will be started.  Note that many J2EE
features depend on certain configs being started, so you should be very careful what you omit.  Any arguments after *\-override* are assumed to be configuration names.

...

If you run the startup command without any parameters you will see a screen similar to this one.

shutdown

If the startup command starts the Apache Geronimo server, shutdown will definitively stop it. This command has the following syntax:

Wiki Markup
*{{*<geronimo_home>/bin/shutdown \[**_options_**\]*}}*

The available options are:

Wiki Markup
*\--user \[**_user_name_**\]*
Specifies the user name with the authority to stop the server. By default you would normally use *system* as the user name.

Wiki Markup
*\--password \[**_password_**\]*
Specifies the password for the user name you just entered. By default you would normally use *manager* as the password.

Wiki Markup
*\--port \[**_port_number_**\]*
Specifies the RMI naming port to connect to the server (for example JMX connection port). By default you would normally use port *1099*.

...

The geronimo command lets you perform the previous two actions, that is start and stop the server in different modes depending on the parameters you specify. This command has the following syntax:

Wiki Markup
*{{*<geronimo_home>/bin/geronimo \[**_options_**\]*}}*

The available options are:

...

Note

This is a powerful tool with many parameters and options but it is not hard to use at all.

...

As with the startup command, the deployment tool can also be invoked in two different ways:

Wiki Markup
*{{*java \-jar deployer.jar \[**_general_options_**\] <**_command_**> \[**_command_options_**\]*}}*

or simply

Wiki Markup
*{{*deploy \[**_general_options_**\] <**_command_**> \[**_command_options_**\]*}}*

Please refer to Deployer tool for a fully detailed description of this tool options and usage.

...

The client.jar launches the client application container. This command has the following syntax:

Wiki Markup
*{{*java \-jar client.jar config-name \[app arg\] \[app arg\] ...*}}*

The first argument identifies the Geronimo configuration that contains the application client you want to run. The rest of the arguments will be passed as arguments to the client application when it is started.
