It seems that I should not close my terminal after I run java -jar JettySessionManager-Server-1.1.jar pw-config.properties &  in the background. If I close the terminal, the http://localhost/apps/Visualizer does not work anymore. Is there anyway to solve this?

If not, Is it possible to update apache 2.2 to apache 2.4.9 perhaps? I have searched through online, but I could not find anything helpful.
