Logging In to a LiveCycle ES Server > Configuring server connections

Configuring server connections

You need to configure a connection to the LiveCycle ES server that you want to log into and access the resources that it stores. If a server is not already configured or you want to change the server settings, you can configure the server from the login dialog box. Ask your administrator for the values you should use when configuring a server.

After you configure a server, you can select the configuration in the login window.

If any of your processes use LiveCycle 7.x QPACs, you need to enable EJB connectivity. You also need to specify the port to use for the EJB connection.

You can enable EJB connections only if you installed Workbench ES with support for upgrading LiveCycle 7.x processes. For information about upgrading, see the upgrading documentation.

Note:   To use EJB connections, the LiveCycle ES server and the computer that runs Workbench ES must reside on the same network subnet.

The following values are the default ports for the naming service of the supported application servers:

JBoss: 1099

WebLogic: 7001

WebSphere: 2809

Enabling EJB connections to WebSphere

If you are enabling EJB connections to WebSphere, you need to install a Java Runtime Environment that is provided by IBM, and configure Workbench ES to use it. For more information, see the Installing Your Development Environment guide.

To configure a server:

  1. In the Adobe LiveCycle ES login dialog box, click Configure. The Manage Configured Servers dialog box appears.
  2. To add a new server, click the Add New Server button . To edit an existing server, select a server and click the Edit Selected Server button .
  3. In the Server Title box, type a name to describe the server. This name is descriptive only. It is displayed in the selection menu of the login window.
  4. In the Hostname box, type the name or IP address of the LiveCycle ES server.
  5. In the Protocol list, select Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP/HTTP) or Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP/HTTPS).
  6. In the Server Port Number box, type the port number provided by your administrator. This specifies the port number used to connect to the server.
  7. (Optional) To enable LiveCycle 7.x QPACs to communicate through an EJB connection, select Enable EJB Connections For LiveCycle 7.x QPACs, an then, in the EJB Port box, enter the port to use.
  8. Click OK, and then click OK again.
