I would like to start the ECP demo without starting EMFStore server, but still be able to connect to an EMF store server that I start seperately.

I tried removing the localserver bundle from my launch script, but an EMFStore service still starts up running on port 8080.
When I remove all emfstore related bundles from my launch script then EMFStore server does not start, but I do not see the + icon in the ECP demo which allows me to connect to a running EMFStore (it is greyed out).
I have also tried keeping just the ecp.emfstore.ui bundles, but they require the emfstore client bundles which require the emfstore server bundles, and including those seems to start up a server.

I am using the RAP demo (but this issue should also affect the RCP version) , and want to start a production and test demo on the same server, as these both try to start emfstore servers this is giving me a few problems on startup and shutdown so I would like to start EMFStore seperately.

Hi Neil,

excluding the localserver bundle is the right way to avoid starting up
an EMFStore instance automatically. I just tested this myself and it did
work for me (using the current release branch of ECP 1.2). I had all
required emfstore bundles as well as the ECP EMFStore bundles
ecp.emfstore.{core, ui, ui.e3} in my launch config.
Can you provide us with some more info regarding your configuration?
Which version of the RAP demo are you using?

Regards,
Edgar

Thanks for your reply Edgar.
I am using the latest release_1.2.0 branch from github.

So I tried removing localserver from my bundles in my launch config, and launching from eclipse. It works like you thought and emfstore did not start.
Then I used war Products to create a war file, making sure localserver was NOT included, deployed the war file to tomcat, started tomcat and emfstore did start.

When I do ss on the tomcat console I see that the bundle localserver does get started, .
I will double check that this is not a problem with my environment.If it is not my environment I suspect the problem is with the WAR product tool.

I Will let you know what I find out.
Neil

I found the problem.
When I deploy my war file to tomcat it puts the bundles into the work directory.
In my case my war file is called crrbrowser so the bundles are put in
"C:\Tomcat 7.0_Tomcat7_TST\work\Catalina\localhost\crrbrowser\eclipse\plugins"

the work directory acts like a cache, so when I redeploy my war file any old plugins that were used in the past will remain even if they are not required in the latest deployment (and even if the tomcat server is restarted).

So when I delete the work\catalina directory and then redeploy my war without localserver then things work ok, and emfstore is not started.

Regards,
Neil.
