Validating the Installation
After you have installed or upgraded Legacy Content Delivery , perform these steps to ensure everything is working correctly.
Before you begin
Important:
If you plan on running anti-virus software, you must ensure that you exclude from the scan the Legacy Content Delivery database path. Typically, this is the WEB-INF\data folder (WEB-INF/data on Linux) in the Legacy Content Delivery application.
For example, if you are running Apache Tomcat, you would exclude this directory from the scan:
On Windows:
ApacheTomcat_home\webapps\CollaborativeReview\WEB-INF\data
On Linux:
ApacheTomcat_home/webapps/CollaborationReview/WEB-INF/data
where ApacheTomcat_home is the Apache Tomcat installation directory.
Procedure
- Browse to the Legacy Content Delivery home page at https://delivery.lc.example.com/CollaborativeReview (where
lcrefers to an example related to output, anddeliveryspecifies it further as a delivery server).If you installed on a Windows Server, use another computer to browse to the Tridion Docs home page. - If you are on a Legacy Content Delivery page, select Home in the breadcrumb trail.
The Legacy Content Delivery landing page appears.
- In the Administration Tools pane, select Manage Application.
The Manage Application page appears.
- If this is a new installation, specify a password for the administrator user.
Note: If this is an upgrade installation, you do not need to change the administrator user password. You can omit this step.
- Select Manage Users.
- Adjacent to admin user name, hover over the icons to find Change password and then select that icon.
- Enter a password, then reenter the password, and then select Save.
- Select System Status.
- Confirm that the file paths, operating system, and other status items are correct.
- Upload the sample data set and view the publication.
See Testing with Sample Data.Note: The lcapi.properties file is used to load API topics from the LiveContentDoc.pac file, and will always be included as an unused resource when running validation. See Testing with Sample Data.
- Manually select items in the table of contents to ensure that all
<topicref>elements work properly. You may then tune the database for optimal performance (search for Tuning performance).
