Starting the eMessage Connector and Running a Quick Test
1. To start the eMessage Connector, use the command appropriate to the base operating system:
◦ For Linux users, from the same shell/terminal in which you set the environment variable, run the following script:
<baseDir>/emessage-connector-<version>-application/bin/emessage
where <baseDir> represents the installation directory on Linux, /var/opt/emessage-connector-<version>/.
◦ For Windows users, from the same Command Prompt (Run As Administrator) in which you set the environment variable, run the following script:
<baseDir>\emessage-connector-<version>-application\bin\emessage.bat
Where <baseDir> represents the installation directory on Windows, C:\emessage-connector-<version>\.
 |
If you use a different shell than the one in which you set the environment variable, the variable will be empty. In this situation, the start script will run, but the Connector will fail to start.
