4 Configuring and Deploying Correspondence Management Solution

After you have installed Correspondence Management Solution, you must run Configuration Manager to configure the installation. Configuration Manager configures LiveCycle modules in EAR files for deploying them to the application server and also deploys the LiveCycle components.

Important: In addition to the Configuration Manager screens for configuring LiveCycle, you will be presented with screens specific to Correspondence Management Solution. See 4.2 Run Configuration Manager for details.
Important: Correspondence Management Solution relies on specific LiveCycle modules and tasks. While running Configuration Manager, you must ensure that these modules and tasks are selected. Review the information at 4.1 Dependencies on LiveCycle modules and tasks before you run the Configuration Manager.

    4.1 Dependencies on LiveCycle modules and tasks

    For successful configuration and smooth running of Correspondence Management Solution, you must select the Adobe® LiveCycle® Forms 10 and Adobe® LiveCycle® Output 10 modules on the Modules selection screen.

    Note: Parameters that are already configured are shown as non-editable during this run. Click Edit configurations to make these fields editable and modify values, if necessary. For example, on Configure LiveCycle screens, you could modify the directories for temporary files, global document storage (GDS), or fonts.

      4.2 Run Configuration Manager

      You must now configure LiveCycle by running Configuration Manager. See the Installing and Configuring LiveCycle ES3 guide for your application server. The complete LiveCycle ES3 documentation is available at LiveCycle ES3 documentation website.

      You will come across the following configuration screens for Correspondence Management Solution while running Configuration Manager.

      • Correspondence Management Solution Selection

      • Correspondence Management Solution Configuration

      • Correspondence Management Solution Deployment

        4.2.1 Correspondence Management Solution Selection

        On this screen, Correspondence Management Solution 10.0.2 option is selected by default. With this option selected, you will be presented with the configuration screens to configure Correspondence Management Solution.

        Click Next to continue.

        4.2.2 Correspondence Management Solution Configuration

        Important: If you are installing Correspondence Management Solution on a non-Windows machine, ensure that you set the ulimit (Open Files, -n) parameter to 8192. Otherwise, the configuration on this steps might fail with an error.
        In this screen, specify the path to the content repository for Correspondence Management Solution and click Configure to create the required repository files at the specified location.
        Note: (Non-turnkey custom mode only) If your LiveCycle server is running remotely, select Server is running on remote host, and specify the path to the content repository on the remote host.

        It configures the Correspondence Management Solution to bundle within the LiveCycle Core EAR file.

        Click Next to continue.

        (Turnkey mode only) A backup (adobe-jboss-core-ear.orig) for the original LiveCycle Core EAR file is taken in the [LiveCycle root]\deploy folder. You can restore the EAR file in case you want to run the set up again without Correspondence Management Solution.

        4.2.3 Correspondence Management Solution Configuration Summary

        For a remote deployment, copy the content from the [LiveCycle root]/configurationManager/export/crx-quickstart/ directory to the location on the remote host you specified on the Correspondence Management Solution Configuration screen.

        Note: In case of clustered deployment, you must copy the content from the [LiveCycle root]/configurationManager/export/crx-quickstart/ directory to the specified location on all cluster node hosts.

        4.2.4 Correspondence Management Solution Deployment

        On this screen, specify the Admin user ID and password, and click Configure to package modified web applications and copy them to the LiveCycle EAR.

        When the configuration is complete, click Next.

        4.3 Access solution template

        You can verify the Correspondence Management Solution deployment by visiting http://[host]:[port]/lc/cm/manageassets.html and logging in using admin/admin as the username/password. Solution template is a reference implementation of Correspondence Management Solution.

        Note: In a non-turnkey deployment, if you encounter an error while accessing the solution template, you must integrate LiveCycle with Correspondence Management Solution as described in 5.3 Integrate LiveCycle with Correspondence Management Solution.

          4.4 Next step

          Now that you have installed, configured, and deployed the Correspondence Management Solution and LiveCycle ES3, there are additional configurations required for Correspondence Management Solution to be fully functional. For details, see 5 Post-Deployment Activities.
