About the Content Service Platform WebReader
You can install the Content Service Platform (CSP) WebReader, a lightweight alternative to the CSP Windows Client. The WebReader enables you to view and manipulate your CSP document types in any web browser. It provides features such as browsing, annotating, zooming, viewing thumbnails, and downloading the original files of content accessible from the CSP server. The WebReader can be installed on a web server such as My webMethods Server or Apache Tomcat.
When installed on My webMethods Server, the WebReader is integrated with the Content tab in CSP-enabled business tasks running on webMethods Task Engine. A View All button is provided to view all of the attachments to a content document type with the WebReader.
Note: | If the CSP WebReader is not installed, you will receive a status 404 error message from the browser indicating that the requested resource is not available. |
When you install the CSP WebReader into your Software AG installation directory with the Software AG Installer, the WebReader components are automatically installed in your My webMethods Server installation, and will be available the next time you start My webMethods Server.
If you want to deploy the WebReader to other web servers besides
My webMethods Server, see the file WebReaderDeployment.pdf, which is installed in the directory
Software AG_directory \CSP\webclient along with the other WebReader components. To integrate WebReader into a portlet application, see
