Can the Jetty server run on Windows-based environments. If there is a Windows installable, can someone please point me to it?
Start Jetty standalone from the JAR file. To start Jetty, switch on the command line to the installation directory and issue the following command. To stop Jetty press Ctrl + C . To start Jetty as Windows service you can use Apache Procrun.
Jetty provides a web server and servlet container, additionally providing support for HTTP/2, WebSocket, OSGi, JMX, JNDI, JAAS and many other integrations. These components are open source and are freely available for commercial use and distribution.
Jetty allows one or more override deployment descriptors, in web. xml format, to be set on a context (via code or IoC XML) to amend the configuration set by the default and standard web. xml . The normal Jetty Java API may be called by code or IoC XML to amend the configuration of a web application.
Running the Web ApplicationSelect the application you want to run on Jetty. Click on the Run button -> Run Configurations. Configure your app on Jetty as shown in the picture bellow and click on Run: Wait for the server to start.
I found a good tutorial and the quick start documentation on the installation of Jetty in a windows environment. It's not simply an installer, but you merely unzip the files into a folder and run the command:
java -jar start.jar
in the folder where you unzipped it to start the server.
