How do I get to the server after installing?

Accessing the MarkVision Professional Server with the MarkVision Application

In application form, the client is installed locally so it can be launched just like any other program installed on the machine. For instance, in Windows environments, you can double-click the MarkVision Professional icon on the desktop. This version of the client does not use a Web broswer.

After starting the application:

  1. Enter the hostname or IP address of the machine running the MarkVision Server, and then click Connect. You can also click Browse to locate your server.
  2. If user accounts are enabled, you are prompted to enter the name of a user account and its password.
  3. Click Login.

Accessing the MarkVision Professional Server with the MarkVision Web Client

Since the MarkVision Web Client is browser based, you need to open your browser and point it to the MarkVision URL. If MarkVision Professional is your default Web server, the URL is:

http://<your server>/markvision

where <your server> is the IP address or hostname of the machine that is running the MarkVision Server.

If MarkVision Professional is not your default Web server, the URL is:

http://<your server>:9180/markvision

Note that because this URL uses a non-standard port number, in most browsers, you need to type the "http://" in the begnning of the URL.

Note: The "markvision" part of the URL is case-sensitive; it must be entered in all lowercase letters.

The MarkVision Web Client launches a browser window from which MarkVision Professional will run as a Java applet. If you have not already enabled your browser to support Sun's Java Runtime Environment (JRE), you must do so at this time. In order to run the Web client, you must first enable your Web browser to support JRE by installing the Java plug-in. In Windows environments, the plug-in is provided and you are automatically prompted to install it the first time you run the MarkVision Web Client.
