After installation, Appweb is normally started automatically as a system service or system
daemon by default. You can change this behavior and only start Appweb manually if you wish.
This page gives information about starting and stopping Appweb as a system service. Before you
can run Appweb as a service, you must first stop any running instance of Appweb. See
Starting and Stopping Appweb
for how to stop
Appweb if it is running manually.
Controlling Appweb
as a Windows Service
Starting and Stopping Appweb as a Service
To start or stop Appweb as a service, use the
Windows services control applet. To invoke the applet, right click on My
Computer and select Manage. Then click on Services and
Applications in the left-hand pane. Select Services underneath and then scroll in the right
pane to find Mbedthis Appweb. Double click on this and select Start, Stop, Pause or Resume as
required.
NOTE: If you reboot your system, Appweb will still be automatically started by the Windows
Service Manager unless you change the Startup Type to be manual.
Removing Appweb as a Service
To permanently stop Appweb running as a Windows Service,
run the following command:
appweb -u
To reinstall Appweb to run as a Windows Service, run the following command:
appweb -i "none"
You may replace "none" other appweb
command options
inside quotes. These options will take effect when Windows starts Appweb after a system reboot.
You will still need to start the service via the Services control applet once Appweb is
reinstalled as a service.
