## Chapter 6. Starting The Server

## 6.1. Standalone HornetQ

To run a stand-alone server, open up a shell or command prompt and navigate into the `bin` directory. Then execute `./run.sh` (or `run.bat` on Windows) and you should see the following output

             bin$ ./run.sh

             15:05:54,108 INFO  @main [HornetQBootstrapServer] Starting HornetQ server
             ...
             15:06:02,566 INFO  @main [HornetQServerImpl] HornetQ Server version
             2.0.0.CR3 (yellowjacket, 111) started

HornetQ is now running.

Both the run and the stop scripts use the config under `config/stand-alone/non-clustered` by default. The configuration can be changed by running `./run.sh ../config/stand-alone/clustered` or another config of your choosing. This is the same for the stop script and the windows bat files.

## 6.2. HornetQ In JBoss AS 5.x

To run HornetQ in JBoss AS 5, you need to create the AS 5 profiles for HornetQ first. Then run JBoss AS 5 with one these profiles. For example, to run JBoss AS 5 with a non-clustered HornetQ server, got to `$JBOSS_HOME/bin` directory and type:

            bin$ ./run.sh -c default-with-hornetq

            15:18:35,460 INFO  [ServerImpl] Starting JBoss (Microcontainer)...

## 6.3. HornetQ In JBoss AS 4.x

To run HornetQ in JBoss AS 4 you must follow the same steps described for AS5 without forgetting to create the AS 4 profiles for HornetQ first.

## 6.4. HornetQ In JBoss AS 6.0

From JBoss AS 6.0 M3 onwards, HornetQ is the default (built-in) JMS provider in JBoss AS, so there's no need to install it - it's already there.
