Question: How do I start Foxhound?

Answer: Starting Foxhound is a two-step process: Starting the Foxhound database in a SQL Anywhere engine, and connecting to the Foxhound HTTP server from your browser.

Method 1: The following desktop shortcuts do both steps:

All Programs - Foxhound1 - Start Foxhound via Chrome

All Programs - Foxhound1 - Start Foxhound via Firefox

All Programs - Foxhound1 - Start Foxhound via IE
The shortcuts above work even if the SQL Anywhere engine is already running; they just ignore the error message produced because the engine's already running, and they press on connecting to Foxhound from the browser.

Method 2: The following "debug" versions of those shortcuts do exactly the same thing, except that (a) they stop the Foxhound database if it is running, before starting it again, and (b) they display any diagnostic messages produced if the Foxhound database fails to start:

All Programs - Foxhound1 - Tools - Start Foxhound via Chrome - debug

All Programs - Foxhound1 - Tools - Start Foxhound via Firefox - debug

All Programs - Foxhound1 - Tools - Start Foxhound via IE - debug

Method 3: You can also start the Foxhound database and open the browser in separate steps:

Start - All Programs - Foxhound1 - Tools - Start Foxhound Engine

Specify http://localhost in your browser.
