When deploying, the service configuration is written to the default folder for system-wide settings using QtSoftware as the organization name (for example, /etc/xdg/QtSoftware.conf). Account and password arguments are ignored. Due to the different implementations of how daemons are installed on various Unix-like systems, this method does not integrate the service into the system's startup scripts. This must be done manually.
Licenses for web-based postprocessing and optiSLang execution (if optiSLang is started directly on the optiSLang Web Service machine) are acquired for the root/elevated user. This must be taken into account when configuring/deploying licenses.
To deploy the optiSLang Web Service as a Linux/Unix daemon:
As an elevated or root user, open a terminal.
Switch to the optiSLang installation directory.
To install the service, run the following command:
manage_web_service -i
To start the service, run the following command:
manage_web_service
To stop the service, select one of the following options:
Run the following command
manage_web_service -t
Manage service actions in the optiSLang Web Service user interface
To uninstall the service, run the following command:
manage_web_service -u
