Configuring Your FIT System
Configuration of Alcea FIT is done by running it immediately after it
has been installed. Alcea FIT will start, and then with your web browser
go to the appropriate webpage and start configuring!
- Start Alcea FIT in the location that you installed it.
- If a browser window does not automatically open when you start FIT,
you must point your web browser to the appropriate URL. If you are running
your web browser on the same machine that you are running FIT, you can
probably use http://127.0.0.1:10000 or http://localhost:10000. If you
are running a web browser on a different machine, you will want to use
the name of the machine where FIT is installed, on port 10000. If you
are not sure what you should be using, check with your network administrator.
- Step 1 is to choose a template to use. All templates are fully
customizable, so if you're not sure which template to choose, pick any
one for now and you can change it later. If you wish, you can also choose
any available modules you'd like to add. Click the "Next Step" button
when you are satisfied with your choices.
- Step 2 is to create an admin user for FIT so that you can login.
Enter a username and password that will be used to login to the system
for the first time. Once you are logged in, you can then enter all the
users you wish. If you forget this password, you can delete the server.cfg
file and start this process again. When you are satisfied with the user
setup, click the "Complete Installation" button.
- At this point you can review your choices and are ready to start using
FIT. Upon clicking the "Complete Installation" button, you can login
with one of the username you created and start using FIT!
Notes:
- If you would like to re-run the installation process, delete the file
called "server.cfg" created in the FIT directory. When this file exists,
FIT runs in tracking mode - but when it is not found, FIT runs in installation
mode.
- Here we'll direct them to some admin documentation.
