Start Wildfly Application Server’s service in Microsoft Windows

In this article, the main focus is to start the Wildfly Application Server’s service. In this context, starting the Wildfly Application Server is in a Microsoft Windows-based operating system. So, in order to do that, the following is the actual process to achieve it :

1. The first step is just by running and accessing the Command Prompt. Either run it as a normal user or even Administrator. The following window will appear below :

2. Next, just try to access the folder of the binary file of the Wildfly Application Server location. In this context, it exist in C:\wildfly-20.0.1.Final. This article is using Wildfly 20.0.1. Final version. Just type the following command according to the location in this context :

   Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.19042.1052]
   (c) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
   C:\WINDOWS\system32>cd \
   C:\>cd wildfly-20.0.1.Final
   C:\wildfly-20.0.1.Final>cd bin
   C:\wildfly-20.0.1.Final\bin>
   

3. After accessing the folder, just type and execute the following command in the command prompt as follows :

     
   C:\wildfly-20.0.1.Final\bin>standalone.bat
   

   If the process for starting the Wildfly Application Server is a success, the following display the actual log output of executing the above command :

   C:\wildfly-20.0.1.Final\bin>standalone.bat
   Calling "C:\wildfly-20.0.1.Final\bin\standalone.conf.bat"
   Setting JAVA property to "C:\jdk-14\bin\java"
