If you have grown accustomed to the legacy interface, but have a newer version (11.x) of WorldServer, you can remove the 11.x sections of the interface and use only the legacy ones.
Procedure
- Install WorldServer with the installer.
- Test the installation and make sure that you can log in to WorldServer.
- If the Idiom service is started, stop it.
- Go to <ws-home>/tomcat/webapps, and then delete the ws folder, along with the WAR files associated with it.
- Rename the ws-legacy folder and WAR file from <ws-home>/tomcat/webapps.
Tip: In the WS_CONFIG folder, make sure that no other folders related to ws are left from the initial installation. The only folders that you should keep are the ones related to ws-legacy and ws-api. Do not forget to rename these folders to match the name of the WAR files from tomcat/webapps.
- In the transportconfig.properties file, uncomment the appropriate line and change the value of the
enable_new_create_project_wizard property to false.
- Start (or restart) the Idiom service.
- In your browser's address bar, type: http://<ws-ip>:<port>/<war-name>/login, where <ws-ip> and <port> are the IP address and port of the server on which WorldServer is installed, whereas <war-name> is the name you gave to the ws-legacy WAR file when you renamed it.
For example, a possible address is: http://12.345.67.890:8085/worldserver/login.
- Optional: On your desktop, create a shortcut that points to the new address.
Tip: If you want modify the shortcut created during the installation to access WorldServer, you can only do so if the ws-legacy folder and the WAR file are renamed as ws. Otherwise, you need to create a new shortcut.
