The standalone deployment engine is implemented as a set of Java
libraries and is multi-platform.
Bourne shell scripts are provided for UNIX and Windows batch
files are provided for Windows.
- (Windows) To start the standalone deployment engine:
- Open a command prompt, and run the
deploy_start script, or
- Select Start Menu > All Programs > Alfresco
Standalone Deployment Receiver > Start Alfresco Standalone
Deployment Receiver.
The Start menu action is available if you have used the
deployment installer to install the Standalone Deployment Engine. This
action is calling the deploy_start.bat
script.
It is also possible to install the standalone deployment engine
as a Windows service, which can automatically start when Windows
starts.
- (Linux) To start the standalone deployment engine, open a command
prompt and run the deploy_start.sh script.
The default shell for this script is
sh. You can edit the
alfresco.sh file to change to your preferred
shell. For example, change the #!/bin/sh line to
#!/bin/bash.
When deploying to a deployment engine running on a multi-NIC
system, it may be necessary to bind the RMI registry to a particular IP
address. To do this, add the following to the Java command in
deploy_start.sh or
deploy_start.bat:
-Djava.rmi.server.hostname=x.x.x.x
Where
x.x.x.x is the IP address assigned to the NIC to which
you want to bind.
