To validate the installation of the Genero Application Server without involving a Web
server, launch the stand-alone Genero Application Server and run a Genero Web Client demo
application.
By default, the demo applications must be run from the localhost, due to configuration
settings in the Genero Application Server configuration file.
- Set the GAS environment by executing the script $FGLASDIR/envas.
- Launch the GAS Standalone (httpdispatch). For
more information on starting the GAS standalone, and the various command
options available, see Startup
and Command Options.
- Check the connection to the application server by displaying
the Demos page, using a URI that provides a direct connection to the
standalone GAS:
http://localhost:6394/demos.html
- Launch the GWC Demos program using a URI that provides
a direct connection to the standalone GAS:
http://localhost:6394/wa/r/gwc-demo
The Demos application is provided with the installation files, is preconfigured and ready to run.
Important: When
you install the GAS using the .msi setup program, it sets the
ADDRESS element
(child of
INTERFACE_TO_DVM)
to "127.0.0.1" within the
as.xcf file. When validating your
installation, if the Demos application fails to display (and you receive
a runtime error), you may have to replace the
INTERFACE_TO_DVM's
ADDRESS element
with the true IP address for the host machine.
