# Stop Query Manipulation Server

You can stop QMS from running in several different ways.

- (All Platforms) Send the `Stop` service action to the component service port:

      http://host:servicePort/action=stop

  where `host` is the name or IP address of the host on which QMS is running, and `servicePort` is the component service port (which is specified in the `[Service]`section of the Query Manipulation Server configuration file).

- On Windows platforms, when the component is installed as a service, you can use the system dialog box to stop the service:

  1. Display the Windows Services dialog box.

  2. Select the QMS service, and click Stop to stop Query Manipulation Server.

  3. Click Close to close the Services dialog box.

- On UNIX platforms, when the component is installed as a service, you can run one of the following commands to stop the service:

  - On systemd platforms:

        systemctl stop QMS

  - On system V platforms:

        service QMS stop

  - On Solaris platforms (using System V):

        /etc/init.d/QMS stop

- On UNIX platforms, you can also use the stop script, `stop-QMS.sh`.
