how can I run play framework with port=9001 under

Question

Under Play console, I can type "run 9001" to run a server in port 9001. But Under windows cmd, When I type "play run 9001", it does not work.

Please help .

Answer 1

Run the following command to run play on required port.

1. > play
2. > run port_no i.e. example:- run 8080

Answer 2

it seems that the following command will fail, at least on windows

>play "run 9001"

what works for me is to start the play console by just typing

>play
[app01] $run 9001

Answer 3

Write exactly like this (with quotas)

play "run 9001"

you can also add other options (again quotas are important)

play -DapplyEvolutions.default=true "start 9003"

Late edit:

On Windows you can try such trick to avoid error message 9001"" was unexpected at this time

play '-Dhttp.port=9004' 'run 9004'

or

play '-Dconfig.file=C:\apps\some-app\conf\other.conf' "run 9005"
