Start the MashZone NextGen Server

Procedure

  1. If the MashZone NextGen Repository has been moved from the default Derby database and they are not already running, manually start these databases following the instructions for their host database.
  2. Do one of the following to start the MashZone NextGen Server:
    1. For Windows systems, either:

      From the Start menu, select Software AG > Start Servers > Start MashZone NextGen version.

      Enter this command in a command window:

      c:>MashZoneNG-install/apache-tomcat/bin/startup.bat

      On Windows Server operating systems MashZone NextGen Server must be started as Administrator. To run MashZone NextGen Server as Administrator, right click on the Start MashZone NextGen version shortcut and select Run as administrator.

      Starting startup.bat from the file system using Windows Explorer does not work.

    2. For Linux, Mac OS X or UNIX systems, open a new terminal window and move to this folder:

      % cd MashZoneNG-install/apache-tomcat/bin

      Then enter this command:

      % startup.sh

  3. Open the MashZone NextGen at http://app-server:port/mashzone and log in.

    You can now access all the MashZone NextGen tools: Feed Editor, Dashboard Editor, Dashboard Viewer and the Admin Console.
