Installation and Configuration

AdminServer considerations

Note the following points that pertain to AdminServer usage:

Before you start a WebSpeed or AppServer application, you must start the AdminServer.
The AdminServer User-Group Authorization feature requires that you have privileges set to allow you access and operational privileges for the AdminServer. See the Installation Utility online help for detailed procedures on how to set up this feature.
The AdminServer must be running before you can use the OpenEdge Explorer to configure and manage your applications.
The DLC directory for a remotely-enabled AdminServer cannot contain spaces.
