If you are using a UNIX/Linux system, make the start-up scripts executable:

$ cd sequoiaerp

$ chmod u+x startofbiz.sh

$ chmod u+x stopofbiz.sh

After installing JDK, set the JDK path in the profile file in /etc/profile or .bashrc file, as given below:

$ export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_10/

To start the Sequoia ERP server, type:

$ ./startofbiz.sh

The server is started as a background process, and the logs are piped to a file called "console.log" in the logs/ sub-directory. To see the logs, type:

 
$ tail -f logs/console.log

To stop the Sequoia ERP server, type:

$ ./stopofbiz.sh

To start the Point of Sales terminal, instead of using startofbiz.sh and stopofbiz.sh, use:

$ java -jar ofbiz.jar –pos
