Running Cascade Server on Windows

Configuring the Application with the Database

  1. Navigate to {$Cascade_Home}\cascade\server\default\deploy and edit the data source configuration file that corresponds to the database which will be used. (eg, if using MySQL, edit the file mysql-ds.xml)

    Locate the <jndi-name> element and set the value to SystemDS:

    <jndi-name>SystemDS</jndi-name>

    Set the <connection-url> element such that it points to the database server (leave as 'localhost' if database is located on the same machine)

    Set the <user-name> and <password> elements using the login credentials to the database

  2. Edit the remaining two -ds.xml files and set <jndi-name> to SystemDS# (where # is any digit 1-9). For example:

    <jndi-name>SystemDS3</jndi-name>
Note: Do not modify the file hsqldb-ds.xml

Starting the Application

Cascade Server can then be run in one of two ways, either via Windows Service or Command Line.

Note:  The application cannot be run in both modes simultaneously. 

Windows Service
  1. On the Start menu, select Run.
  2. Type in services.msc and click OK.
  3. Locate the "Cascade Web Content Management System" service, right-click and select Start.

Command Line
  1. On the Start menu, select All Programs > Cascade Server > Start Cascade Server.
