Installation From an Archive File

The basic distribution of Cadenza is distributed as an archive file that you get for your particular platform. The filename will be something like Cadenza-10.2.100-dist-linux.zip for x86 Linux or Cadenza-10.2.100-dist-windows.zip for x86 Windows.

This archive can be unpacked anywhere on your hard drive.

After unpacking you can start Cadenza by starting the start_cadenza.sh or start_cadenza.bat files. This will start the included Tomcat Web Server with Cadenza preinstalled and configured with a demo repository.

By default, Cadenza will be available on http://localhost:8080/cadenza/ when started in this way.

Installation Settings

You can configure a few settings by editing the the cadenza_settings.sh or cadenza_settings.bat files. They contain the following settings:

Setting Value

CADENZA_LANGUAGE

The ISO-639 alpha-2 or alpha-3 language code. Cadenza currently only supports "de" and "en".

CADENZA_COUNTRY

The ISO-3166 alpha-2 country code or UN M.49 numeric-3 area code. Cadenza currently only support "DE" and "US".

CADENZA_SERVER_PORT

The TCP port on which Cadenza listens for requests. By default this is 8080.

Cadenza as a Windows Service

The installation files for Cadenza as a Windows service are located in the <cadenza_home>\tools\windows-service directory. Use the file (un)installCadenzaService.bat to install or uninstall the service (as administrator). You can also configure the service’s name, ID, and description in the cadenza-service.xml file. The service will use the same Tomcat startup scripts as the normal installation (e.g. setenv.bat).
