Launching the MassTransit Engine and MassTransit Transporter Services

The MassTransit Engine and MassTransit Transporter services must be started via the Services Control Panel.

  1. To access the Services Control Panel, go to Start → Programs → Administrative Tools → Services.

    Note: If you have MassTransit HP, you need to place the license file sent from Acronis into the MassTransit installation directory before starting the MassTransit services.

  2. Once the Services window is open, highlight the service named "MassTransit Transporter" and select the Start Service button.

    Note: The MassTransit Transporter service should be started before starting the MassTransit Engine.

  3. In the Services window, highlight the service named "MassTransit" and select the Start Service button.
  4. The default startup type for the MassTransit and MassTransit Transporter services is Automatic, thus anytime your machine reboots, the services automatically start.

    Note: MassTransit is dependent upon MySQL and will fail if MySQL is not started. Make sure the MySQL service is set to start automatically. If you find that MassTransit is attempting to start before MySQL is ready, you can modify the options in the Recovery tab of the MassTransit service to have it retry.
