Importing a LiveCycle application

You will use the Applications and Services page in Administration Console to import a LiveCycle application to the LiveCycle server. When you log in to Administration Console, the user profile that you use must be assigned either the Application Administrator or Super Administrator role.

Log in to Administration Console to import archive file

  1. In the URL line of a web browser, type http://[server]:[port]/adminui where [server] represents the network name of the LiveCycle server and [port]represents the port number of the LiveCycle server.

    For example, in the URL line of the web browser, type http://localhost:8080/adminui.

  2. Press Enter.

  3. On the Administration log screen, complete these steps:

    • In the User ID box, type atanaka

    • In the Password box, type password

    • Click Login.

    It is recommended that you use the Akira Tanaka (atanaka) user profile for this tutorial. (See Understanding the sample environment). If you use a different user profile, you can use it instead of the Akira Tanaka user profile.

  4. On the Administration Console home page, click Services > Applications and Services > Application Management.

  5. On the Application Management page, click Import.

  6. On the Application/Archive Import page, click Browse. The File Upload dialog box appears.

  7. On your computer, navigate to the location of the LiveCycle application archive file such as C:\FirstAppEx.lca, click Open, and then click Preview.

  8. On the Preview Application page, select the Deploy assets to runtime when import is complete check box, and then click Import.

  9. On the Application Management Page, verify that the FirstApp LiveCycle application is deployed and click Logout. If the FirstApp LiveCycle application successfully deployed, a green check mark in the Deployed column appears beside it, as shown in this illustration.
