The Dashboard Server installation creates a MySQL database which is accessed by the Dashboard Client installations.

Pre-requisites

Read the Lingoport Suite Installation, which describes how all the Lingoport applications work together and the hardware and software configuration requirements.

Selected a target machine that has a supported Operating System: Windows, Linux, or MacOS

  1. Supported OS: Linux
  2. Installed Java 7 or greater JRE on the target machine. You can check your Java version using the command line. At the command prompt enter: java -version The version of Java which you have on your system should be displayed. If you need to install Java, please refer to http://www.java.com/en/download/index.jsp or any Java download page which supplies Java 7 or above.
  3. Installed MySQL 5.1 or higher on a database server. MySQL Download site. If the database server is not the same machine as the LRM server, then you will need to install the MySQL 5.x Client (only need Client) on the LRM server so that it can access the database on the separate database server.
    • You can verify that you have a sufficiently up-to-date version of MySQL using the command prompt. In the command prompt type:
    mysql -u <user> -p<password>
    • If MySQL is installed on your system, information on the version will be displayed after entering a valid username and password. If MySQL is not version 5.1 or higher, please refer to a download site, such as MySQL Download and install an up-to-date version.
    • You will need to enter the MySQL credentials (host, username, password and port number) during the installation.
  4. Determine the port you will use for connection to the Dashboard Server; the default is 9000; on Mac the port is usually 9090. You will need to enter the connection port during the Dashboard Server installation.<?LI>
