cd /Applications/magnolia-x.y/apache-tomcat/bin |
Start Magnolia. | Code Block |

./magnolia_control.sh start && tail -f ../logs/catalina.out |
The first part of the startup command ./magnolia_control.sh start launches Magnolia. The second part && tail -f ../logs/catalina.out displays log messages written to /apache-tomcat/logs/catalina.out log file. This makes it easier to troubleshoot startup errors. Magnolia reports startup information. If startup fails, look for the reason in the report. In a successful startup the last line reads:
INFO: Server startup in 12345 ms. | Tip |

To stop Magnolia, type CTRL + C, then ./magnolia_control.sh stop and press RETURN. |
