Each time I install my EP from CD I encounter the same problem. My dispatcher starts my server automatically and I don't get a cmd console where I can easily control the system log of my EP. Especially if you use EP for development, it's inconvinient.
So, this is the way you configure your server to start up the way you want it:
1. Use the J2EE Configtool to set the dispatcher r3startup service to "Manual". a sample service.ini file from the j2ee\configtool folder:
Service_1_JavaPath=c:\jdk1.3.1\
Service_1_Name=cluster\server
Service_0_MainClass=com.inqmy.boot.Start
ServiceCount=2
Service_1_Port=5561
Service_0_RootDir=D:\usr\sap\ep62\j2ee\j2ee_01\cluster\dispatcher
Service_0_Timeout=10000
Service_1_RootDir=D:\usr\sap\ep62\j2ee\j2ee_01\cluster\server
Service_0_JavaPath=c:\jdk1.3.1\
Service_1_MainClass=com.inqmy.boot.Start
Service_0_Name=cluster\dispatcher
Service_1_Parameters=
Service_1_Timeout=10000
Service_1_JavaParameters=-server -XX:+DisableExplicitGC -XX:MaxPermSize=64M
-XX:PermSize=64M -XX:MaxNewSize=64M -XX:NewSize=64M -Dmemory.manager=512M
