Important:

Open the Command Prompt in the 'Run as Administrator' mode, otherwise it won't work! Make sure that the IIS server is running before performing below steps.

CRITICAL WARNING:

DO THIS ONLY IF THE GN4 DATABASE WAS NOT INITIALIZED AND WAS NEVER CUSTOMIZED !

 

Config\Editorial_InstallConfig.xml file lists of all the files that we have to load in the GN4 database (configurations, webparts, icons, etc...).

You can use this file to initialize a standard GN4 Editorial database:

srv4 dbupdate -config ..\config\Editorial_InstallConfig.xml -yes

If you have prepared exported or customized installation files (that will typically be the case), the advice is

Install license file

Use:

c:\tera\gn4\bin\srv4.exe license -in <drive>:\licensefile.xml

c:\tera\gn4\bin\srv4.exe license -show

Remember to recycle the application pool.

Start services

Use:

net start "tera back4"

net start "tera file4"
