A shortcut (Sphinx - Server) to the setting program is created on the desktop. The registry database is changed.
The configuration wizard is automatically launched after the installation (if it does not, launch it using the desktop shortcut
Sphinx - Server.
Configuration wizard
Important: This part of the installation is the most important, some elements of the solution will be configured
permanently (domain names, for example). You must be sure that the parameters that you enter will be those that will be
used after the server is in production.
The configuration wizard will create and configure all windows services needed and perform configuration of manager
platform (creating IIS applications, update rights NTFS ...). Here is its interface:
The configuration wizard is divided into different sections :
- Platform Name : this field (pre-filled with "SphinxServer") contains the name you want to give to the SphinxOnline
Manager platform. This name will be used to create services and the website in IIS. It will help you to recognize
the elements that belong to our solution.
- Survey server : in this section you complete the domain name, IP address and port to be used by the survey
server.
- Mailing service : Here, fill the address and the port of SMTP server to use for sending mails. If it requires
authentication, you must fill in the username and password to be used by SphinxOnline Manager to send mails.
- Manager platform (IIS) : indicate in this section informations relating to the manager platform including mode, the
domain name, the path to the wwwroot directory (pre-filled with what you have selected in the installer), the IP
address and port to use.
Note:
The survey server and the management platform can not run on the same IP address and port.
If you do not have domain names associated with the server IP addresses of the survey server or the management
platform, use the network name (or possibly IP address) of your server.
If you configure the management platform HTTPS mode, the website created in IIS is configured for HTTP, it's up to you
to remove the HTTP binding and create HTTPS binding with your SSL certificate.
Once you complete all the required fields, click the "Install" button.
A dialog box informs you that the installation is complete. Sphinx server is automatically launched.
To complete the installation, click on "Users ..." button and log in as administrator (default login / password: admin /
admin).
Manual Configuration
This section should only be used in case of default by the setup wizard or by advanced users.
Survey server
The survey server configuration program is launched at the end of the installation. You can re-launch it (c:\eureka_s
\server.exe or by means of the shortcut on the desktop Sphinx - Server)
