• The Proline Web eXtension (PWX) is based on the use of MongoDB database engine. You need to download it and install it either on the computer which will host the PWX server, or any other network-accessible computer. You will find the installation files on this page : http://www.mongodb.org/downloads
• Download and unzip the PWX archive.

NOT AVAILABLE YET: The automated installer embeds several components of the Proline Suite. You may only install the Proline Web component, but if you want you can perform a full installation. It will install Proline-Admin and Proline-WebCore in the bin directory of Proline Web.

If you installed your MongoDB database on a different computer than the PWX server, you'll need to edit the PWX configuration file :

• Go to the installation directory of your PWX server
• Go to the “conf” folder and open the “application.conf” file with any text editor (like Window default Notepad)
• Edit the mongodb.servers and cache.mongodb.servers parameters by setting the host name and the port number corresponding to your MongoDB server (default MongoDB port is 27017)

If MongoDB is installed on the same computer as the PWX server, you don't need to configure anything at this time.

• First, please make sure that MongoDB is running. If it's not, please start it manually. See official docs
• In order to start the PWX server, go to its installation folder. On Windows platforms launch the “start.bat” script. On Linux platforms execute the “start.sh” script.

Once PWX is running, you can connect to the Proline Web Desktop by opening a Web Browser and go to the address of this form: “name-of-the-machine:9000” or “local.ip.of.the.machine:9000” (for instance 192.168.0.30). The default user is “admin” and its password is “proline”. Don't forget to change its password from the User menu button once you're logged in.

• The connection between the desktop and the proline core server is provided by the “proline” service. This service is included with the Proline Web eXtension server, but it needs to be configured. The following steps will explain how:
• To set it up, as an admin user, once logged in, click on the “gear” button on the top task bar. Then open the Daemons tab, and click on “Proline” to edit its settings :

• Here are some param values you can use :
  • ws_host is the address of the Proline Web Core server. Use the name or the IP address of the server to set the URL. Examples :
    • http://servername:8080/proline
    • http://localhost:8080/proline
    • http://198.0.13.37/proline (replace 198.0.13.37 by the right IP address)

• data_root is the directory where the user projects data will be stored. You can use something like D:/proline/data. Make sure this directory exists on your disk, Proline won't create it automatically if it doesn't.

• db_password is the password you gave to the PostgreSQL user specified above.
• mascot_server_url (optional) is the url of your mascot server

You might need to restart the PWX server to make sure these new settings are updated.
