Starting Yate as server on Windows

Yate will install as a windows service with manual startup - you have to change it to "automatic" in a production environment. To start the service "net start yate" will do the trick.

Yate can also be started as a console program executing yate-console.exe - in this case the same command line options for linux can be used.

Please notice that if you want to enable logging while running as a windows service you have to manually change some registry keys


Usage: yate [options] [commands ...]
  -h, --help     Display help message (this one) and exit
  -V, --version  Display program version and exit
  -v             Verbose debugging (you can use more than once)
  -q             Quieter debugging (you can use more than once)
  --service      Run as Windows service
  --install      Install the Windows service
  --remove       Remove the Windows service
  -p filename    Write PID to file
  -l filename    Log to file
  -n configname  Use specified configuration name ()
  -e pathname    Path to shared files directory (.\share)
  -c pathname    Path to conf files directory (.\conf.d)
  -u pathname    Path to user files directory (C:\users\paulc\Application Data\Yate)
  -m pathname    Path to modules directory (.\modules)
  -x relpath     Relative path to extra modules directory (can be repeated)
  -w directory   Change working directory
  -N nodename    Set the name of this node in a cluster
  -t             Truncate log file, don't append to it
  -D[options]    Special debugging options
    a            Abort if bugs are encountered
    m            Attempt to debug mutex deadlocks
    d            Disable locking debugging and safety features
    c            Call dlclose() until it gets an error
    u            Do not unload modules on exit, just finalize
    i            Reinitialize after 1st initialization
    x            Exit immediately after initialization
    w            Delay creation of 1st worker thread
    o            Colorize output using ANSI codes
    s            Abort on bugs even during shutdown
    t            Timestamp debugging messages relative to program start
    e            Timestamp debugging messages based on EPOCH (1-1-1970 GMT)
    f            Timestamp debugging in GMT format YYYYMMDDhhmmss.uuuuuu

Starting Yate as client on Windows

The client has a different executable yate-qt4.exe and slightly different commad line options:

Usage: yate [options] [commands ...]
  -h, --help     Display help message (this one) and exit
  -V, --version  Display program version and exit
  -v             Verbose debugging (you can use more than once)
  -q             Quieter debugging (you can use more than once)
  -p filename    Write PID to file
  -l filename    Log to file
  -n configname  Use specified configuration name ()
  -e pathname    Path to shared files directory (.\share)
  -c pathname    Path to conf files directory (.\conf.d)
  -u pathname    Path to user files directory (C:\users\paulc\Application Data\Yate)
  -m pathname    Path to modules directory (.\modules)
  -x relpath     Relative path to extra modules directory (can be repeated)
  -w directory   Change working directory
  -N nodename    Set the name of this node in a cluster
  -t             Truncate log file, don't append to it
  -D[options]    Special debugging options
    a            Abort if bugs are encountered
    m            Attempt to debug mutex deadlocks
    d            Disable locking debugging and safety features
    c            Call dlclose() until it gets an error
    u            Do not unload modules on exit, just finalize
    i            Reinitialize after 1st initialization
    x            Exit immediately after initialization
    w            Delay creation of 1st worker thread
    o            Colorize output using ANSI codes
    s            Abort on bugs even during shutdown
