Unzip Folders and Files

Manual Install Steps

Version 1.1 is released to ACT sites as a zipped folder containing the ACT web-client named act-webclient. To deploy the web-client at a local site user must first unzip the act-webclient folder into a local drive. After unzip, the directory structure of the folder will look like this:


Set Up Working Directory

Create the following directories on your system:  /opt/viewer_jobs (You can provide your own choice of directories and name as described below)


Edit Configurations


It is a good idea to edit config files locally and then copy all files to the web server.

To ensure that the ACT software works correctly, the ACT_config.php file has to be edited to accommodate your environment. This file can be found in the act-webclient root directory.

Details for each configuration task are shown below.

Once Step 1 through 3 are done, user must copy/upload the edited ACT-webclient folder to their web server (eg. /var/www/html/).

After the ACT webclient is successfully deployed to the web server, the user can validate the installation using a tool provided with the webclient.
