Windows Service

There are two ways to configure system properties when starting Bamboo as a service, either via the command line or in the Windows registry.

Setting properties for Windows services via command line

  1. Identify the name of the service that Bamboo is installed as in Windows (Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services):


  2. Open the command window from Start > Run > type 'cmd' > Enter.
  3. cd to the bin directory of your Bamboo installation directory
  4. Run:

    tomcat7w //ES//%SERVICENAME%
    

    (info) In the above example, it would be tomcat7w //ES//Bamboo

  5. Click on the Java tab to see the list of current start-up options:
  6. Append any new option on its own new line by adding to the end of the existing Java Options. Refer to the list of parameters below.

 

Setting Properties for Windows Services via the Windows Registry

In some versions of Windows, there is no option to add Java variables to the service. In these cases, you must add the properties by viewing the option list in the registry.

To set properties for Windows services via the Windows registry

  1. Go to Start > Run, and run "regedit32.exe".
  2. Find the Services entry:
    32-bit: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE >> SOFTWARE >> Apache Software Foundation >> Procrun 2.0 >> Bamboo
    64-bit: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE >> SOFTWARE >> Wow6432Node >> Apache Software Foundation >> Procrun 2.0 >> Bamboo
  3. To change existing properties, especially increasing Xmx memory, double-click the appropriate value.
  4. To change additional properties, double-click options.
  5. Refer to the list of parameters below. Enter each on a separate line.
