Run the Servers in the Background

Follow these steps:

  1. Change to the directory that contains the server executables.
  2. Enter the command:
    iefmd /mderr=<filename.log> &
    
  3. Browse <filename.log> for the messages for each server indicating the server is ready.

The command directs output to a single log file, instead of messages scrolling off the screen. This method also creates an audit trail if errors occur and creates a file to troubleshoot with Product Technical Support.
