Re: Server install
After the installation, please run the x4Trace Server Dashboard.
You can find this Dashboard in your operating system's menu.
The next few steps are not typical.
This is the Server Dashboard.
You need an SQL server to run x4Trace. To install a new instance, press the "Install SQL Server 2019" button. Information about installing SQL servers and SQL server licenses is available on the Microsoft website.
If you already have, select the instance next to the install button.
You have a lot of choices about what you want to do with the x4Trace server.
Use as a regular server: Install the server using the Windows service by pressing the "Install service" button. The x4Trace server will run in the background. Remember to set the permissions of the x4Trace server in your Windows service management. Create an account to run the service, and set the start to automatic.
Use as a developer server: Start the server with the "Start server" button. The server will run as a console application. To close the server press the "Kill server" button. The developers also need to have a license key.
To set the server settings, press the "Settings" button. You can set the listening port and the SQL server connection string.
x4Trace has a sample database for first users and developers. After installation, you can use it. Sample orders present how x4Trace works. You can start production with these sample data. To simulate production, the most simple is to use the "Start Desktop" and "Start Terminal" buttons. These buttons are also usable to test the plugins and drivers for developers.
The "Extract devkit" is for developers. It contains sample code and x4Trace's current open-source code.
You can find this Dashboard in your operating system's menu.
