Chapter 9. Testing your Installation

Procedure 9.1. Test the Platform Installation

1. Start the Server

   There are several options to start the server:

   1. Option 1 - Shortcut

      Start the server using a desktop or start menu shortcut created by the Graphical Installer.

   2. Option 2 - run.sh / run.bat

      Start the server using the run.sh (Red Hat Enterprise Linux/Hewlett-Packard HP-UX) or run.bat (Microsoft Windows Server) script.

      Note

      For a full list of parameters for run.bat see the Using run.sh section of the Getting Started Guide. The commands for run.sh and run.bat are identical.
      Execute the following command in a terminal in the jboss-as/bin directory:

      Red Hat Enterprise Linux/Hewlett-Packard HP-UX

      ./run.sh

      Windows

      run.bat

   Result:

   The server starts using the default profile.

2. Test the Server homepage

   Open http://127.0.0.1:8080 in a web browser on the server machine.
