Install Workpoint Designer on JBoss

This procedure describes how to install and configure Workpoint Designer to work with a CA GovernanceMinder server on JBoss.

Follow these steps:

1. Locate the following directory on the server where you ran the CA GovernanceMinder installer:

   gm_install\Server\eurekify-jboss\Workpoint
   

   gm_install is the CA GovernanceMinder installation directory.

2. Copy the Workpoint Designer directory to a system that runs a supported version of Windows or Linux. Continue this procedure on that system.
3. (Remote) Define an ODBC Data Source that points to the CA GovernanceMinder Workpoint database.
4. Configure the Workpoint Designer as follows:
   1. In the Workpoint Designer directory, locate the workpoint-client.properties file in the following folder:

      \conf

   2. Locate and edit the following property:

      java.naming.provider.url—The host name and port information for the Workpoint server or the Workpoint cluster load balancer. For a JBoss cluster, the default port on the load balancer is 1100.

      Note: Edit the instance of this property that is under the JBOSS SETTINGS section of the file. Specify the full URL and port string. Do not specify a DNS hostname.

   3. Save and close the workpoint-client.properties file.
5. Verify the Workpoint Designer installation.

   Workpoint Designer is installed and configured to work with a JBoss installation.
