## 7.1 Starting Virgo Server for Apache Tomcat

To start Virgo Server for Apache Tomcat run the `startup.sh` (Linux) or `startup.bat` (Windows) script. For both platforms, the script is located in the `SERVER_HOME/bin` directory.

| Note
This chapter applies to Virgo Nano too. Note that since VN has a single region you can ignore the console output from the user region and focus on the instructions. A successful startup of VN is as simple as that:
    [2011-12-28 11:41:31.528] startup-tracker              <KE0001I> Kernel starting.
    [2011-12-28 11:41:31.602] startup-tracker              <KE0002I> Kernel started.

### Linux

To start Virgo Server for Apache Tomcat, open a terminal window and run `startup.sh`:

    prompt$ cd $SERVER_HOME
    prompt$ bin/startup.sh

Once Virgo Server for Apache Tomcat has started, the console will display a log message similar to the one shown below, along with other status messages:

    [2009-11-30 12:12:12.111] Thread-2   <UR0001I> User region ready.

The preceding message indicates that you can start using VTS.

### Microsoft Windows

To start Virgo Server for Apache Tomcat, open a command-window and run `startup.bat`:

    prompt> cd %SERVER_HOME%
    prompt> bin\startup.bat

Once Virgo Server for Apache Tomcat has started, the console will display a log message similar to the one shown below, along with other status messages:
