Spotfire Server: Running the configuration tool on a local computer

The Java runtime specified in the Spotfire Server System Requirements must be installed on the local computer.

Procedure:

1. From the computer where Spotfire Server is installed, copy the <installation_dir>/tomcat/webapps/spotfire/tools/spotfireconfigtool.jar file to the local computer.

   Note: If Spotfire Server is up and running, you can also download the spotfireconfigtool.jar file from the Server Tools page in the web administration pages.

2. On the local computer, unpack the .jar file by double-clicking the spotfireconfigtool.jar file.

   If your system does not recognize the file type, follow these steps instead:

   1. On the local computer, open a command prompt and go to the directory that contains the spotfireconfigtool.jar file.

   2. On the command line, enter the following command:

      java -jar spotfireconfigtool.jar

   A spotfireconfigtool directory is created in the same directory as the .jar file.
3. In the newly-created directory, double-click uiconfig.bat (Windows) or uiconfig.sh (Linux) to open the configuration tool.
