To use a new plugin for IXIA CCMS Web, it must be uploaded to CCMS Web.
You must have access to the Apache Tomcat server, which might
require direct access if it is not exposed externally. Therefore, if you are a
CCMS administrator, you might require assistance from IT
staff.
Note: In a dedicated SaaS deployment, submit a support ticket to
request that IXIA CCMS Customer Support perform this task for you.
- Open the administration page of the Oxygen Web Author Component by entering the following URL in a browser:
http://host name:TOMCAT_HTTP_PORT/oxygen-webapp/app/oxygen.htmlWhere for host name and TOMCAT_HTTP_PORT:
- host name is the name of the machine where you installed the Apache Tomcat service
- TOMCAT_HTTP_PORT is the value you specified in the properties.txt file for that parameter
For example: http://localhost:8080/oxygen-webapp/app/oxygen.html
- At the top of the web page, click Administration Page.
- Enter the Apache Tomcat username and password.
The username and password are the TOMCAT_USER
and TOMCAT_PASSWORD
values you specified in the properties.txt file for those parameters.
- In the left pane, click Plugins.
- Click Upload plugin.
-
Select the plugin that you want to install, and click
Open.
Important: Depending on the size of the plugin, it
might take a few minutes and does not display a progress indicator. Do not
click anywhere else while the plugin is uploading. Once the plugin is
uploaded, it should appear highlighted in green on the Plugins page.
- Restart the IXIA CCMS service.
-
Save the plugin file in a place you can reference later.
Tip: Keep a copy of the dita-company folder
with your backups of the Content Store
in case you need to update your plugin folder again. You can save this
plugin there.
