Starting and stopping services

There are two types of services that are part of LiveCycle:

  • Services that control the LiveCycle application server and database.

  • Services that control LiveCycle modules

Start or stop the services associated with LiveCycle modules

LiveCycle modules (for example, Forms, Rights Management, Output) operate as services. At times, you may need to stop or start the services for these LiveCycle modules. For example, you must stop and then restart a LiveCycle service after you change a setting for the service.

  1. In Administration Console click Services > Applications and Services > Service Management.

  2. On the Service Management page, select the check box beside the service to stop or start and click Stop or Start.

Start or stop services for the application server and database

A complete implementation of LiveCycle includes an application server and database services:

  • [application server] for LiveCycle

  • [database] for LiveCycle

On Windows, these services are accessible through the Administrative Tools > Services panel. For example, if you installed LiveCycle on JBoss by using the turnkey method, the following services are available on your system:

  • JBoss for LiveCycle

  • MySQL for LiveCycle

Start or stop these services by selecting them from the list on the Services panel and then clicking the appropriate action button on the panel.

On UNIX® or Linux, enter the following text from a command line, where [service name] is the name of the service you are verifying:

    ps -A | grep [service name]
