I would like to run Apache Solr in windows as background Process. Now I am starting solr through terminal using command java -jar start.jar. The problem with this is this stops when the terminal closes..

Any Suggestion?

Thanks

Solr with Tomcat.

http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrTomcat

As for previous answer, you can do it easier using services.msc to set Tomcat to start on bootup.

My answer to a previous question. But this is for setting up multiple "cores", so please dont confuse yourself over this.

  • +1 We used that method a little while ago on a WinXP VPC (hosted in Windows 7), worked fine - after some fiddling with the configs. – Jeroen Nov 09 '11 at 11:13

I used this tutorial and it works perfectly:

If you use Tomcat as you application host, you can easily run that as a Windows Service. http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/windows-service-howto.html
