Configuring WorldServer 11.x to use only the legacy interface (with the installer)

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

  1. Install WorldServer with the installer.
  2. Test the installation and make sure that you can log in to WorldServer.
  3. If the Idiom service is started, stop it.
  4. Go to <ws-home>/tomcat/webapps, and then delete the ws folder, along with the WAR files associated with it.
  5. Rename the ws-legacy folder and WAR file from <ws-home>/tomcat/webapps.
  6. In the transportconfig.properties file, uncomment the appropriate line and change the value of the enable_new_create_project_wizard property to false.
  7. Start (or restart) the Idiom service.
  8. 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.
  9. Optional: On your desktop, create a shortcut that points to the new address.
