Starting an AppServer or a WebSpeed instance
To start an AppServer or a WebSpeed instance, first select the instance in the Servers view, which is part of the default OpenEdge Server perspective. To display this view if it is not open, select Window > Show View > Servers.
You have the following options:
*Let OpenEdge start the server automatically.
*Select and run an existing AppServer or WebSpeed launch configuration.
*Explicitly define and run a new AppServer or WebSpeed launch configuration.
Note: You can use the Progress Developer Studio for OpenEdge Debugger to debug an AppServer or WebSpeed instance. For more information, see AppServer and WebSpeed debugging. To debug an AppServer version prior to 11.0, you will need to use the standalone OpenEdge Debugger.
* Letting OpenEdge start the AppServer or WebSpeed broker automatically
* Selecting an existing AppServer or WebSpeed launch configuration
* Defining and running a new launch or debug configuration
