=== Running Jetty
To start Jetty on the default port of 8080, run the following command:
[source, screen, subs="{sub-order}"]
----
> cd $JETTY_HOME
> java -jar start.jar

You can point a browser at this server at link:http://localhost:8080[].
However, as there are no webapps deployed in the $JETTY_HOME directory, you will see a 404 error page served by Jetty.
*Note* the HomeBase warning - it is _not_ recommended to run Jetty from the $JETTY_HOME directory.
Instead, see how to link:#creating-jetty-base[create a Jetty Base] below.

Within the standard jetty distribution there is the `demo-base` directory, which demonstrates the recommended way to run Jetty in a directory separately from $JETTY_HOME:

----
You can visit this demo server by pointing a browser at link:http://localhost:8080[], which will now show a welcome page and several demo/test web applications.
____
[WARNING]
The demonstration web applications are not necessarily secure and should not be deployed in production web servers.
____
You can see the configuration of the demo-base by using the following commands:
[source, screen, subs="{sub-order}"]
----
> cd $JETTY_HOME/demo-base/
> java -jar $JETTY_HOME/start.jar --list-modules
...
> java -jar %JETTY_HOME/start.jar --list-config
...
----
The `--list-modules` command will return a complete list of available and enabled modules for the server.
It will also display the location of the modules, how and in what order they are implemented, dependent modules, and associated jar files.
The `--list-config` command displays a trove of information about the server including the Java and Jetty environments, the configuration order, any JVM arguments or System Properties set, general server properties, a full listing of the Jetty server class path, and active Jetty XML files.
[[creating-jetty-base]]
==== Creating a new Jetty Base
The `demo-base` directory described above is an example of the link:#startup-base-and-home[jetty.base] mechanism added in Jetty 9.1.
A Jetty base directory allows the configuration and web applications of a server instance to be stored separately from the Jetty distribution, so that upgrades can be done with minimal disruption.
Jetty's default configuration is based on two properties:
jetty.home::
The property that defines the location of the jetty distribution, its libs, default modules and default XML files (typically start.jar, lib, etc)
jetty.base::
The property that defines the location of a specific instance of a jetty server, its configuration, logs and web applications (typically start.ini, start.d, logs and webapps)
The `jetty.home` and `jetty.base` properties may be explicitly set on the command line, or they can be inferred from the environment if used with commands like:
[source, screen, subs="{sub-order}"]
----
> cd $JETTY_BASE
> java -jar $JETTY_HOME/start.jar
----
The following commands create a new base directory, enables both the HTTP connector and the web application deployer modules, and copies a demo webapp to be deployed:
[source, screen, subs="{sub-order}"]
----
> JETTY_BASE=/tmp/mybase
> mkdir $JETTY_BASE

[[quickstart-changing-jetty-port]]
==== Changing the Jetty Port
You can configure Jetty to run on a different port by setting the `jetty.http.port` Property on the command line:
[source, screen, subs="{sub-order}"]
----
> cd $JETTY_BASE
> java -jar $JETTY_HOME/start.jar jetty.http.port=8081
...
----
Alternatively, property values can be added to the effective command line built from either the `start.ini` file or `start.d/http.ini` files.
By default, the Jetty distribution defines the `jetty.http.port` property in the `start.d/http.ini` file, which may be edited to set another value.
____
[NOTE]
--
The configuration by properties works via the following chain:
* The start.d/http.ini file is part of the effective command line and contains the --module=http argument which activates the http module.
* The modules/http.mod file defines the http module which specifies the etc/jetty-http.xml configuration file and the template ini properties it uses.
* The jetty.http.port property is used by the Property XML element in etc/jetty.http.xml to inject the ServerConnector instance with the port.
For more information see the link:#quick-start-configure[Quickstart Configuration Guide] and link:#configuring-connectors[Configuring Connectors].

____
[[quickstart-starting-https]]
==== Adding SSL for HTTPS & HTTP2
To add HTTPS and HTTP2 connectors to a Jetty configuration, the modules can be activated by the following command:
[source, screen, subs="{sub-order}"]
----
> java -jar $JETTY_HOME/start.jar --add-to-startd=https,http2
[...]
> java -jar $JETTY_HOME/start.jar
[...]
2015-06-04 13:52:01.933:INFO:oejs.ServerConnector:main: Started ServerConnector@6f1fba17{SSL,[ssl, alpn, h2, http/1.1]}{0.0.0.0:8443}
[...]
----
The `--add-to-startd` command sets up the effective command line in the ini files to run an ssl connection that supports the HTTPS and HTTP2 protocols as follows:
* creates `start.d/ssl.ini` that configures an SSL connector (eg port, keystore etc.) by adding `etc/jetty-ssl.xml` and `etc/jetty-ssl-context.xml` to the effective command line.
* creates `start.d/alpn.ini` that configures protocol negotiation on the SSL connector by adding `etc/jetty-alpn.xml` to the effective command line.
* creates `start.d/https.ini` that configures the HTTPS protocol on the SSL connector by adding `etc/jetty-https.xml` to the effective command line.
* creates `start.d/http2.ini` that configures the HTTP/2 protocol on the SSL connector by adding `etc/jetty-http2.xml` to the effective command line.
* checks for the existence of a `etc/keystore` file and if not present, downloads a demonstration keystore file.
____
[NOTE]
If a single `start.ini` file is preferred over individual `start.d/*.ini` files, then the option --add-to-start=module may be used to append the module activation to the start.ini file rather than create a file in start.d
____
[[quickstart-changing-https-port]]
===== Changing the Jetty HTTPS Port
You can configure the SSL connector to run on a different port by setting the `jetty.ssl.port` property on the command line:
[source, screen, subs="{sub-order}"]
----
> cd $JETTY_BASE
> java -jar $JETTY_HOME/start.jar jetty.ssl.port=8444
----
Alternatively, property values can be added to the effective command line built from the `start.ini` file and `start.d/*.ini` files.
If you used the `--add-to-startd` command to enable HTTPS , then you can edit this property in the `start.d/https.ini` file.
If you used `--add-to-start` command, then you can edit this property in the `start.ini` file.
==== More start.jar options
The job of the `start.jar` is to interpret the command line, `start.ini` and `start.d` directory (and associated .ini files) to build a Java classpath and list of properties and configuration files to pass to the main class of the Jetty XML configuration mechanism.
The `start.jar` mechanism has many options which are documented in the xref:startup[] administration section and you can see them in summary by using the command:
[source, screen, subs="{sub-order}"]
