8.4 Accessing module web applications

After LiveCycle is deployed, you can access the web applications that are associated with the following modules:

  • Reader Extensions

  • Adobe® LiveCycle® Workspace 11

    Note: The Flex Worksapce is deprecated for AEM forms. It is available for the LiveCycle ES4 release.

  • HTML Workspace

  • User management

  • Correspondance management

  • PDF Generator web application

  • Adobe® LiveCycle® PDF Generator 11

  • Adobe® LiveCycle® Rights Management 11

After accessing the web applications by using the default administrator permissions to ensure that they are accessible, you can create additional users and roles so that others can log in and use the applications. (See Administration Help.)

      Note: For WebLogic, [port] is the port assigned to the Managed WebLogic Server.

    2. Log in using the user name and password for LiveCycle.
