Options

Description

-version

Displays the program version. This option must be the only argument. The program ends after the version information is displayed.

directory

Sets the working directory. The Eduction ACI server starts from this directory. All other arguments used in the command line are relative to this directory.

-configfile file Sets the configuration file name. This option overrides the default configuration file name of eductionserver.cfg.
-revokelicense Revokes a lock on the Eduction license from the License Server.
-install

Installs Eduction as a service (Windows only). Syntax:

-install [-start auto|manual|disabled] [-username username] [-password password]

The -start option allows you to specify the startup mode. By default, it is automatic. If you do not supply a user name and password, Eduction runs under a local account.

-uninstall Uninstalls the Eduction service.

NOTE: On Linux, the ACI server requires the C++ library, libstdc++.so. To ensure the server can locate the required library, set the Library Path:

    setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH bin:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
