How can I run solr on a windows server, so it starts up automatically?
I run it with:
java -jar start.jar
but I need the server to do this automatically.

A:
Create a batch file with the command you need and run it on startup: some of these ideas might be of use.
If you ran solr inside tomcat, you could start tomcat as a windows service and set the service to start automatically.

I am using IIS, not tomcat.

Can you explain more about how you are deploying a .WAR file inside of IIS? Or are you using IIS as a frontend to some other webcontainer? I think you can't deploy inside of IIS, that you need to have something like Jetty (which is what you are using with java -jar start.jar) or Tomcat.

Good point, Eric. IIS is not a servlet container: Blankman is probably simply using it as a frontend to jetty. In that case, my suggestion of using it with tomcat might make sense. Otherwise, Jetty can be set up as a windows service as well: http://docs.codehaus.org/display/JETTY/Win32Wrapper

A:
The Scheduled Tasks feature in Windows Server will let you configure your command to be executed at startup, without the use of a batch file.
