Start LicenseServer, FlowForce Server
This topic describes how to start Altova LicenseServer (LicenseServer for short) and FlowForce Server. To be able to start these programs, you can use one of the following options: (i) you can be the root user and leave out the sudo keyword from the commands listed below (leaving out sudo is optional), or (ii) you can run the sudo command as a normal user with the corresponding permissions for sudo.
Start LicenseServer
To correctly register and license FlowForce Server with LicenseServer, LicenseServer must be running as a daemon on the network. Start LicenseServer as a daemon with the following command:
[≥ Debian 8], [≥ CentOS 7], [≥ Ubuntu 15] | sudo systemctl start licenseserver |
If at any time you need to stop LicenseServer, replace start with stop in the command above. For example:
sudo systemctl stop licenseserver
Start FlowForce Server
Start FlowForce Server as a daemon with the command appropriate for your system from those listed below. Since FlowForce Server consists of two services, flowforceserver and flowforcewebserver, start each separately using the appropriate command:
[≥ Debian 8], [≥ CentOS 7], [≥ Ubuntu 15] | sudo systemctl start flowforceserver |
If at any time you need to stop FlowForce Server, replace start with stop in the command above. For example:
sudo systemctl stop flowforceserver
Check status of daemons
To check if a daemon is running, run the following command, replacing <servicename> with the name of the daemon you want to check:
sudo service <servicename> status
