Altova MapForce Server 2025 Advanced Edition

This section describes the installation and licensing of MapForce Server on macOS systems. The setup comprises the following steps:

 

1.Install MapForce Server

2.Install LicenseServer

3.Start LicenseServer

4.Register MapForce Server with LicenseServer

5.Assign a license to MapForce Server

 

The setup steps described above do not need to occur in exactly the same order in which they are listed. However, you do need to install before you start. And you do need to register MapForce Server with LicenseServer before you can assign a license to MapForce Server from LicenseServer.

macOS 12 or newer

 

Prerequisites

Note the following prerequisites:

 

Ensure that Altova LicenseServer has been installed and is running.

Perform installation either as the root user or as a user with sudo privileges.

The previous version of MapForce Server must be uninstalled before a new one is installed.

The macOS machine must be configured so that its name resolves to an IP address. This means that you must be able to successfully ping the host name from the Terminal using the command ping <hostname>.
