Restart Contrast

To restart Contrast:

  1. Use the following command(s):

    • Windows:

      net stop "Contrast Server"
      

      Once the service is completely shut down:

      net start "Contrast Server"
    • Linux:

      sudo service contrast-server restart
  2. At this point, it's helpful to tail the server logs:

    $ tail -f $CONTRAST_HOME/logs/server.log
  3. And then the application logs:

    $ tail -f $CONTRAST_HOME/data/logs/contrast.log
  4. If Contrast starts successfully, you will see this message in the server.log:
