Did you add the f param for running it in foreground? I noticed that the Solr service was restarted indefinetly when running it as a background service. its also needed to stop the windows service.
This test worked well here (on Windows 2012): REM Test for running solr 5.3.1 as a windows service C:\nssm\nssm64.exe install "Solr 5.3.1" C:\search\solr-5.3.1\bin\solr.cmd "start -f -p 8983" On 8 October 2015 at 04:34, Zheng Lin Edwin Yeo <edwinye...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Adrian and Upayavira, > > It works fine when I start Solr outside NSSM. > As for the NSSM, so far I haven't tried the automatic startup yet.
