Running as Windows service

IREn InGrid can be installed to run as a Windows service.

If run on a Windows machine, the IREn InGrid installer registers it automatically.

Note: Just after the installation, IREn InGrid registers itself as a "manually starting" service. The reason for that is that after the installation, the administrator must choose an appropriate configuration according to the business needs and configure IREn InGrid by creating a ingrid.conf file. Once a good, valid configuration is created, the system administrator may then change IREn InGrid to start "automatically".

IREn InGrid searches the configuration file named ingrid.conf in the root installation directory.

Alternatively, IREn InGrid can be run using a batch script ingrid.bat:

java -classpath "c:\path\to\InGrid\lib\ingrid.jar" \
    com.renderx.ingrid.XepMultiplexer c:\path\to\InGrid\ingrid.conf

See more details in Chapter 4.

To uninstall IREn InGrid installed as Windows service use "Add or remove programs", "Apps & features" or "Programs and Features".
