Installation

After you install and configure the Prolifics web application server, you should verify that it starts up properly on web application server machines. If Prolifics software is not installed and configured correctly, an appropriate error message is displayed. Depending on the problem, the program might also terminate. Refer to Appendix E for a list of the more common error messages related to system configuration, and how to resolve them.

On the Prolifics web application server machine, verify the installation by running the Prolifics Gallery, and verify the configuration by running your own application.

To verify the Prolifics web application server installation:

Run the Prolifics Gallery:

`Choose Start Prolifics Gallery Server on the Start Menu.

`Choose View Prolifics Gallery Samples on the Start Menu.

`Choose Stop Prolifics Gallery Server on the Start Menu when you are finished.

To verify that your web application server configuration and licensing are cor- rect:

`Configure a new application by running Web Setup Manager from the Start Menu.

`Start the application by typing:
