2026-07-10We migrate to JDK 17Michael Peter Christen
This is a hard requirement to be able to migrate to a more recent jetty version, which may happen sometime soon.
2026-04-20fix: ignore comment lines when reading yacy.conf keys in startYACY.sh (#736)Leo
Previously grep matched commented-out keys like '#javastart_Xmx=512m' alongside the active one, causing invalid JVM args and a cryptic 'Error: Could not find or load main class' failure on Docker start. All three conf key reads (javastart_Xmx, javastart_priority, port) now pipe through 'grep -v '^\s*#'' before key-matching.

2025-03-22Remove deprectated JAVA_ARGSThomas Merkel
Both JAVA_ARGS are obsolete since JDK14 and expired in JDK15. They are no longer work on modern illumos (SunOS) distributions. Additonal the comment mention Darwin which is not SunOS.

We will use the default value for now on. This is much better for resource economy and fits better into a container/docker/kubernetes strategy. Furthermore, a small memory footprint is essential for the usage on small devices like RaspberryPi.

Fix to make start script run on FreeBSD that i used, likely applies to dragonfly, trueos and possibly netbsd- but unable to test.

2019-04-14Made SNI extension user configurable without the need for server restartluccioman
TLS Server Name Indication (SNI) extension activation can now be configured with the new Settings_p.html?page=httpClient administration page. SNI extension is also now enabled by default, as in 2019 the unrecognized_name(112) alert is more properly handled by major web servers TLS implementations, following the RFC 6066 standard.

2019-01-26Fixed shell start script failure on missing memory settings in conf fileluccioman
Before that fix, the startYACY.sh failed when the javastart_Xmx or javastart_Xms configuration keys were missing for some reason from yacy.conf file, with the error "Unrecognized option: - Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine."
2019-01-14Properly read configured memory settings when using a custom data pathluccioman
Fixes issue #269
2018-08-30Made possible to provide an absolute data root path for start scriptluccioman
Previously, only a path relative to the user home folder could be provided
2018-04-17Added a start script option to run as a foreground process without JMXluccioman
Contrary to the -d/--debug option which opens the 9999 port thus allowing remote monitoring with JVM tools such as JConsole.
2016-12-31Fixed docker stop behavior.luccioman
- Adjusted start script in debug mode to make sure the main java process can receive signals such as SIGTERM - Modified docker images main command to properly propagate SIGTERM signal to the main java process
2016-09-03Fixed options processing for Mac OSluccioman
- getopt is BSD style and does not support long options - fixed typing error inparameter value extracting for all platforms
2016-09-02Fix for startup optionluccioman
- Var initialization - Declaration in getopt

2016-02-28harmonize classpath with startYaCy.batreger
(with servlet classloader no need for htroot in system classpath)
2015-07-29move java environment parameter setting disabling SNI (Server Name ↵reger
Indicator) support for https connections from code to startup script allowing admin to ~easy/transparent alter the YaCy default FALSE setting. Background: some user report problem with connecting/crawling some sites via https which require SNI support (by default switched off in YaCy). On the other hand systems not demanding SNI support are sometimes not properly configured and due to a bug/feature in java 1.7 connection is aborted. The later is more often the case, so the default is still fine. With the java start parameter expert user can no alter the startparameter to -Djsse.enableSNIExtension=true (java default) if they crawl more hosts requiring SNI support. The alternative to let YaCy try both during https handshake (deep inside the httpclient) is not pursut at this time.

2015-01-23fix for shell scriptMichael Peter Christen
2015-01-23replaced old JavaApplicationStub for Mac Application framework with newMichael Peter Christen
script. Adopted the YaCyApp environment and fixed a problem in the startYACY.sh application wrapper which caused wrong usage of logging option -l which caused that files had been written to the YaCy application folder. As a result of this fix, it is not necessary any more to change path settings in Info.plist if libraries are changed.
2014-09-30large IPv6 redesign of peer ping methods!Michael Peter Christen
removed preferred IPv4 in start options and added a new field IP6 in peer seeds which will contain one or more IPv6 addresses. Now every peer has one or more IP addresses assigned, even several IPv6 addresses are possible. The peer-ping process must check all given and possible IP addresses for a backping and return the one IP which was successful when pinging the peer. The ping-ing peer must be able to recognize which of the given IPs are available for outside access of the peer and store this accordingly. If only one IPv6 address is available and no IPv4, then the IPv6 is stored in the old IP field of the seed DNA. Many methods in Seed.java are now marked as @deprecated because they had been used for a single IP only. There is still a large construction site left in YaCy now where all these deprecated methods must be replaced with new method calls. The 'extra'-IPs, used by cluster assignment had been removed since that can be replaced with IPv6 usage in p2p clusters. All clusters must now use IPv6 if they want an intranet-routing.

applied for the debian version. There is no reason to apply this restriction. Added also the -d64 option if the system is 64 bit.
2013-07-27reverted start script options - yacy on windows did not start with theorbiter

2013-01-21Reverted setting of MMapDirectoryFactory from solrconfig; seeMichael Peter Christen
http://forum.yacy-websuche.de/viewtopic.php?p=27509#p27509 Instead, in the start script is checked if the host is a 64 host and -Dsolr.directoryFactory=solr.MMapDirectoryFactory is set as java option Reverted the ramBufferSizeMB setting (this was not enabled anyway) because that may be too much memory for small peers and embedded systems. Activated the mergeFactor 4; this was commented out by mistake

2010-09-03fixed a problem with restarts in YaCy mac applications: the DATA directory ↵orbiter
path was not submitted when doing a restart.

2010-08-05added a very early test version of a YaCy gui component.orbiter
The gui currently does nothing else than providing a search window that sends the search string to the browser The gui is started when YaCy is started with the option -g or --gui, like ./startYACY.sh -g The gui will primary be used to provide a 'real' macintosh version that can be started and operated like any other macintosh application.
