Starting the CONNX JDBC Server
The CONNX JDBC Server component is a Microsoft Windows server component that communicates with the CONNX JDBC Driver. It is a Windows executable that opens a socket and listens for new connections. When it accepts a new connection, it creates a new thread that is dedicated towards communicating to that client. Installing the CONNX JDBC Server component on every machine is an optional task since only one server is required for communication with all CONNX JDBC client machines.
During installation, CONNX JDBC verifies that the target system is running on Windows. The user is prompted at the end of installation procedures to place CONNX JDBC in the Windows Startup folder.
The following procedure is to be used if you have decided not to place CONNX JDBC in the Windows Startup folder during installation.
To start the standalone server for Windows:
1. Launch CONNX JDBC Server (Command Line).
The JDBC server startup begins, and the CONNXJDBC window appears and is minimized to the taskbar.
2. The server's main task is to listen for new requests and then process requests from the CONNX JDBC Java clients. While most CONNX JDBC clients need not install the server, the CONNX JDBC Server component must be installed on at least one machine.
Do not close the CONNXJDBC window if there are any active client processes.
