2.6.2 Starting the Daisy Repository Server

Still in the same command prompt (or in a new one, but make sure DAISY_HOME is set), go to the directory <DAISY_HOME>/repository-server/bin, and execute:

daisy-repository-server <location-of-daisy-data-dir>

In which you replace <location-of-daisy-data-dir> with the location of the daisy data directory created in the previous step.

Starting the repository server usually only takes a few seconds, however the first time it will take a bit longer because the workflow database tables are created during startup. When the server finished starting it will print a line like this:

Daisy repository server started [timestamp]

Wait for this line to appear (the prompt will not return).
