8.1.1 Perform a system image backupAfter LiveCycle is installed and deployed into production
areas and before the system is live, it is recommended that you
perform a system image backup of the servers on which LiveCycle
is implemented.
The
LiveCycle database, GDS directory, and application servers must
be part of this backup. This is a complete system backup that you
can use to restore the contents of your computer if your hard drive
or entire computer stops working. See the LiveCycle
Backup and Recovery topic in Administration Help .
8.1.2 Restart the application serverWhen you first deploy LiveCycle, the server is in a deployment
mode in which most modules are in memory. As a result, the memory
consumption is high and the server is not in a typical production
state. You must restart the application server to get the server
back into a clean state.
8.1.3 Verify the deploymentYou can verify the deployment by logging in to Administration
Console. If you log in successfully, then LiveCycle is running on
the application server and the default user is created in the database.
You can review the application server log files to ensure that
components were deployed correctly or to determine the cause of
any deployment issues you may encounter.
8.1.3.1 Accessing Administration Console Administration Console is the web-based portal for accessing
a variety of configuration pages where you can set run-time properties
that control the way LiveCycle operates. When you log in to Administration
Console, you can access User Management, Watched Folder, and Email
client configuration, and administrative configuration options for
other services. Administration Console also provides access to Applications
and Services, which administrators use for managing archives and
deploying services to a production environment.
The default user name and password for logging in is administrator and password.
After you log in the first time, access User Management and change the
password.
Before you access Administration Console, LiveCycle must be deployed
and running on your application server.
For information about using Administration Console, see Administration Help.
Type the following URL in a web browser:
http://[hostname]:[port]/adminui
For
example: http://localhost:8001/adminui
Note: The
default port number for WebLogic Server is 7001. When you created
a new managed server, you may have set a different port. Managed
server uses a default port of 8001.
If you have upgraded to LiveCycle, enter the same administrator
user name and password as that of your previous LiveCycle installation.
In case of a fresh installation, enter the default user name and
password.
After you log in, click Services to access the service
administration pages or click Settings to access the pages
on which you can administer settings for different modules.
8.1.3.2 Change default passwordLiveCycle creates one or more default users during the
installation. The password for these users is in the product documentation
and is publicly available. You must change this default password,
depending on your security requirements.
The LiveCycle administrator user password is set to “password”
by default. You must change it in Administration Console > Settings
> User Management.
8.1.3.3 View the log filesEvents, such as run-time or startup errors, are recorded
to the application server log files. If you have problems deploying
to the application server, you can use the log files to help you
find the problem. You can open the log files by using any text editor.
Log
files are located at [appserverdomain]/servers/[managed server name]/logs
