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.
Before you begin:Due to
configuration settings in the Genero Application Server configuration file, access to demo
applications needs to be configured. Make sure you have provided access to run the demo
applications from the localhost, see Example configuring access control for demo applications.
-
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 Tools and Commands.
-
From your web browser, 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/ua/r/gwc-demo
The Demos application 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 of the host machine.
