Add Openfire as a service

Openfire Openfire Support
1

Hi, I just did a fresh install of 3.8.1 on a windows server 2008 R2. It never asked me to set up to run as a service. And it did not add as a service by default. Is there something additional I need to do here?

Thanks

Dave

I just migrated from one server that had Openfire 3.6.4 to a new server that has 3.8.0 and it looks like their is no automatic service that runs in 3.8.0. When you click on the Openfire icon it brings up a box that has Start, Stop, Launch Admin and Quit buttons. And in order for users to use SPARK you must have this box running. So I to have the same question is their a service that should auto run?

Thank you

Rob
