Deploy runtime on GAS

Deploy runtime on GAS using the Deployment App

The Deployment App must be installed and configured before following these steps. For information on Deployment App installation and configuration, go to Configure the primary Genero Identity Provider.

  1. Ensure the Genero Application Server (GAS) is running.
  2. Enter the URL for the Genero Deployment App:
    http[s]://server:port>[/gas]/ua/r/admin/DeploymentApp
  3. Deploy the new browser client:
    1. Click Deploy and select Genero Browser Clients.
    2. Click Deploy.
    3. Select the GBC client by dropping or uploading a file.

    The GBC client is listed under the Genero Browser Client(s) section.

    Tip:

    The name of the runtime identifies the deployed GBC package. The default name can be lengthy. You may want to rename the GBC runtime package to use a simpler name. Doubleclick the name in the GBC client's row and enter a new name.

  4. To make this GBC client the default GBC client for applications, select the client in the Genero Browser Client(s) section and click Set as Default.
    Tip:

    You can continue to use any (previously) deployed Genero Browser Clients by adding the URL parameter gbc=deployed_gbc_name to the end of the URL, for example:

    http://my.server.com:6394/ua/r/appName?gbc=gbc-1.00.44

Deploy runtime on GAS using the command line

  1. Set your environment by running the envas script ($FGLASDIR/envas or $FGLASDIR/envas.bat) for your GAS installation.
  2. From a command prompt, deploy the GBC runtime package using the gasadmin command.
    $ gasadmin gbc --deploy fjs-gbc-version[.suffix]-buildbuild-runtime.zip

    The name of the runtime identifies the deployed GBC package.

    Tip:

    You can rename this file with a name that is shorter and easier to manage.

  3. Specify this package as the default GBC client using the gasadmin command.
    $ gasadmin gbc --default fjs-gbc-version[.suffix]-buildbuild-runtime.zip
  4. View the list of deployed GBC clients.
    $ gasadmin gbc --list
  5. When the GBC is deployed, you can render your application using the default GBC with the following URL:
    http://my.server.com:6394/ua/r/appName
    Tip:

    You can continue to use any (previously) deployed Genero Browser Clients by adding the URL parameter gbc=deployed_gbc_name to the end of the URL, for example:

    http://my.server.com:6394/ua/r/appName?gbc=gbc-1.00.44
