Step 3: Start services

After completing the configuration, you are ready to start the servlet runner and run the Administrative WebStation.

NOTE:If you installed Management and Security Server on Windows, the automated installer detects whether IIS is installed on your machine and offers to integrate IIS with the product. You can run the IIS Integration Utility later, if preferred. For more information, see Running the IIS Integration Utility.

  1. Start Services: Start the server components.

    If you do not start the server components now, you can manually start them later.

    (See Starting the servlet runner.)

  2. Installation Complete.

    After installing the Administrative Server, you can run the Administrative WebStation from any computer with a web browser. For example:

    http://[server name][:port]/mss/AdminStart.html

    Specify the port number if different from 80, the default.

Starting the Servlet Runner

Before you can run the Administrative WebStation, the Metering Server, or the Terminal ID Manager, you must start the servlet runner.

If you are using a servlet runner other than the one provided, refer to its documentation to start and stop the servlet runner.

To start the servlet runner:

  1. In your mss/server/bin folder, locate either server.bat (Windows) or server (Linux or UNIX).

  2. Start the server.

    • On Windows:

      server.bat

    • On Linux or UNIX:

      Use the daemon appropriate to your platform for installing or uninstalling the servlet runner as a service.

      server start
