Not using the bundled Sybase SQL Anywhere database engine

...

When not using the Sybase SQL Anywhere database engine, the option can be unchecked in the installer. This will skip the installation of both the Sybase SQL Anywhere database engine and the sample databases.

Since the Servoy Application Server requires at least one connection named 'repository_server' for the Servoy Repository, when unchecking the 'Database' option in the All-In-One installer, the installation of the Servoy Application Server after finishing the All-In-One installer will not be ready for use.

In order to get the Servoy Application Server ready for use the following steps are required:

  • Copy a servoy.properties file from another installation (for example a Servoy Developer instance) into the <servoy>/application_server directory
  • Open the copied servoy.properties file using a text editor and manually edit the server settings. For each named server a set of properties can be set.
Note

Passwords set as plain text directly by editing the servoy.properties file manually will automatically get encrypted after starting and stopping the Servoy Application Server for the first time after editing
