Overview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I recently had the opportunity to setup m-Power on a Fedora based server (RHEL\/Centos). If you find yourself wanting to install m-Power on this operating system (or one similar to it), please check out the below instructions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note:<\/strong> The following instructions assume you are logged in as a root<\/strong> user to a command line interface. If not, you will need to issue the following commands in \u201csudo\u201d mode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Steps<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Change directory to root (cd \/tmp) and download m-Power from our servers using this syntax:
    wget https:\/\/www.mrc-productivity.com\/products\/mpower\/rc\/m-power_linux.zip<\/code><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Download JDK 17 from Amazon by clicking here<\/a> to download the rpm. Please install it on your Fedora based server.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Now that the necessary programs have been downloaded, you will need to give yourself the authority to run each program:
    chmod +x m-power.zip<\/code>
    chmod +x java-17-amazon-corretto-devel-17.0.12.7-1.x86_64.rpm<\/code><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Next, install the JDK via a local yum install<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Once that completes, you should be able to type in the following commands to verify that the JDK has installed correctly.
    java -version<\/code>
    javac -version<\/code><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. Next, you will need to extract m-Power. You can do this by using the following syntax:
    jar -xf m-power_linux.zip<\/code>
    This will create file in \/tmp called InstallmPower.sh<\/code>. Run this command it will complete the installation process.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  7. Install your m-Power license file by transferring your mrclicense.txt file to the \/mrc\/dev\/m-power\/proddata\/conf folder of your Linux server.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  8. Additionally, install an additional copy of your m-Power license file to the \/mrc\/dev\/m-power\/mrcjava folder.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  9. We will start Tomcat using the catalina.sh within the \/m-power\/tomcat\/bin directory. Before you run this, you will need to grant authority to execute this program. Do this by typing the following:
    chmod +x \/m-power\/tomcat\/bin\/*.sh<\/code><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  10. Start Tomcat by issuing the following command:
    \/m-power\/tomcat\/bin\/catalina.sh start<\/code><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  11. Tomcat can be stopped using this command:
    \/m-power\/tomcat\/bin\/catalina.sh stop<\/code><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    You can access m-Power by using the following URL:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \nhttps:\/\/Linux_IP_Address:8011\/webapp\/mrc\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Troubleshooting<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    If you cannot connect using the instructions above, there is a good chance that your Linux server is not allowing traffic on m-Power\u2019s default port, 8011. To allow traffic on this port, please do the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Run this command: vi \/etc\/sysconfig\/iptables<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Add the following information:
      -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 8011 -j ACCEPT<\/code><\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Be sure to Save.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Restart the IPTables by issuing the following command:
      \/etc\/init.d\/iptables restart<\/code><\/code><\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. Be sure to stop and start Tomcat before accessing m-Power via the web.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
