Importing a Solution into the Application Server

Overview

To import a solution, we must first have a running Servoy Application Server, see Installing and Running the Servoy Application Server.  Once we have a server, we can use the Server Administration web utility to manage the server, including importing solutions to the Application Server.

Accessing the Application Server Administration Utility

To access the Application Server Administration Utility:

• Open a web browser
• Enter the following URL

  http://<your_application_server>:8080/servoy-admin

  replacing <your_application_server> with the address of the application server.

Importing the Solution

To import a solution in the Administration Utility:

1. Verify the Application Server is not started as a team repository:
   1. Find the servoy.application_server.startRepositoryAsTeamProvider value near the bottom of the main page of the Administration Utility.
   2. If the value is set to true, change the value to false and save the settings by clicking the Save Settings button.
   3. Restart the Application Server (look for a button near the top of the main page).\
2. Select the Solutions link on the left side menu.
3. At the bottom of the solution list, click on the Import a Solution link.  The Solution Import page will appear.
4. Enter the location of the .servoy file. If you do not have a .servoy file, see Exporting a Solution From Servoy Developer
