52 <title>DESCRIPTION</title>
54 <command>pazpar2</command> is the Pazpar2 Metasearch daemon
56 In normal operation it acts as a simple HTTP server which serves
58 The HTTP listener address may be given on the command line using
59 option <option>-h</option> or in the main configuration
60 file. The main configuration must be specified using option
66 <title>OPTIONS</title>
70 <term><option>-d</option></term>
73 Enables dump of XML records to the current log file.
74 It is useful if stylesheets are being debugged.
77 This option may also be used together with option <option>-t</option>
78 in which case the configuration, after include processing, will be
84 <term><option>-D</option></term>
87 Puts the Pazpar2 server in the background.
92 <term><option>-f <replaceable>config</replaceable></option></term>
95 Specifies main configuration. This option must be specified
96 in order for Pazpar2 to operate normally.
101 <term><option>-h <replaceable>ip:port</replaceable></option></term>
104 Specifies the HTTP listener binding address.
105 The <replaceable>ip</replaceable>
106 may be a hostname or <literal>@</literal> for "any" address.
107 The <replaceable>port</replaceable> is an integer.
112 <term><option>-l <replaceable>logfile</replaceable></option></term>
115 Specifies log file. The log file must be specified when Pazpar2
116 is running in the background (-D).
121 <term>-m <replaceable>timeformat</replaceable></term>
123 Sets the format of time-stamps for logging.
126 url="http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/strftime.html">
128 man page for the format.
132 <term><option>-p <replaceable>pidfile</replaceable></option></term>
135 Specifies PID file. If Pazpar2 is started and configured properly
136 the file given holds the process ID of the Pazpar2 process.
141 <term><option>-R <replaceable>recfile</replaceable></option></term>
144 If this option is given, HTTP requests are logged to file named
145 <replaceable>recfile</replaceable>.
151 <term><option>-t</option></term>
154 Checks parameters and configuration. No service or daemon is
155 started. Useful for checking a new configuration before a
156 Pazpar2 is restarted.
159 The configuration, after include processing, may also be dumped
160 to stdout by supplying option <option>-d</option> as well.
164 In Pazpar2 1.2 and earlier releases, option -t specified a
165 local target settings file.
172 <term><option>-u <replaceable>uid</replaceable></option></term>
175 Makes the Pazpar2 server change user ID to the
176 <replaceable>uid</replaceable> given.
177 This, normally, requires root privilege.
183 <term><option>-v <replaceable>level</replaceable></option></term>
186 Sets log level (YAZ log level system).
192 <term><option>-V</option></term>
195 Shows Pazpar2 version and versions of some of the components that it
196 is using (ICU and YAZ). Pazpar2 will exit immediately after
197 displaying the version information (no daemon started).
203 <term><option>-w <replaceable>dir</replaceable></option></term>
206 Changes working directory to <replaceable>dir</replaceable>.
212 <term><option>-X</option></term>
215 Makes the Pazpar2 server operate in debugging mode.
216 This prevents Pazpar2 from making separate threads and processes.
217 This option should not be used in production.
223 <term><option>-install</option></term>
226 This is an option which is only recognized on Windows. It installs
227 Pazpar2 as a Windows Service.
231 Pazpar2 only supports Windows Service options if Pazpar2 is
232 linked against YAZ 3.0.29 or later.
239 <term><option>-remove</option></term>
242 This is an option which is only recognized on Windows. It removes
243 a Pazpar2 - Windows Service.
253 <title>EXAMPLES</title>
254 <para>The Debian package of pazpar2 starts the server with:
256 pazpar2 -D -f /etc/pazpar2/pazpar2.cfg -l /var/log/pazpar2.log -p /var/run/pazpar2.pid -u nobody
261 This will put pazpar2 in the background (-D), read config from from
262 <filename>/etc/pazpar2/pazpar2.cfg</filename>, log messages to
263 <filename>/var/log/pazpar2.log</filename>, create PID file
264 <filename>/var/run/pazpar2.pid</filename>. When the daemon is properly
265 started, the server will change effective user ID to nobody.
268 The server can be terminated with:
270 kill `cat /var/run/pazpar2.pid`
274 If Pazpar2 is to be debugged using GDB, we use option -X:
278 (gdb) run -X -f ../etc/pazpar2.cfg
