Use the command-line to start Sybase CEP Server on Microsoft Windows.
On Microsoft Windows, the server is started with a command similar to:
C:\Program Files\SybaseC8\Server\bin\c8_server.exe -c=C:\Program Files\SybaseC8\Server\conf\c8-server.conf
This command should all be on one line even though it's not shown on one line in this manual. The "-c=C:\Program Files\SybaseC8\Server\conf\c8-server.conf" indicates which server configuration file the server should use.
If you try to start the server directly with only the command "c8_server.exe", you will likely see a message that includes:
license file was not found
If you do not specify the configuration file, the Sybase CEP Server will not know where to look for the license file.
