ClosedVariant 2

First, the stand-alone installation is performed by means of the installation wizard. The EEC should not yet be started after the installation has been completed. Therefore the option Start EEC, which is activated by default, must be deactivated. The option Open New And Noteworthy List may remain selected.

Subsequently the initialization file (ec.ini) has to be extended:

  1. Open the initialization file <EEC installation folder>\ec.ini in an editor (for example Notepad).
  2. Add the following lines to the end of the file:
-Dcom.mind8.ecserver.port=<Port des EEC-Servers z.B. 7171>
-Dcom.mind8.ecserver.baseEOXPath=<absoluter Pfad zum Ordner der Basismodelle>
-Dcom.mind8.remote.server.repository.file=<absoluter Pfad zum Ordner der Sessionmodelle>
  1. Save the initialization file.

Note:

This port number must match that in the file web.xml.
The folder for basic models contains models that are available for the Web EEC. This specification is mandatory! The path must be specified using forward slashes /, and not backslashes \. The specific model is stated in the file web.xml without the file extension .eox. This is also true of the system model.
The folder of the session models contains the model files that are created for a new session. This specification is mandatory!
The resources required for the model must be provided, and configured on the side of the EEC Server.
