Specify configuration settings during installation
Start Installation
The following instructions assume that you select "Intrexx Portal Server Production Installation (Single Server)" when choosing components. With this option, you install Intrexx with all available components on a (virtual) Windows server.
Open the Windows Command Prompt. Navigate to the directory containing the installation files.
Start the installation with the following command:
consolesetup.bat
Optional Parameters
You can optionally use the following parameters for the installation:
| --logging=plain | If you use this parameter or value, all individual installation steps will be displayed. The animation (a rotating slash) is disabled in the log output. |
| --configFile=<cfgfile> | If you use this parameter, you can install Intrexx using a configuration file (see Installing Intrexx Using a Configuration File (Headless). |
| --update - d |
If you use this parameter, you can perform an "unattended update." Use this parameter together with the --configFile or --installationPath parameters. |
|
--silent -s |
If you use this parameter, detailed progress information will not be displayed during setup. Note: The --silent parameter is not related to the Intrexx Silent Track. You will choose the release track later during the installation. |
| --help | You can use this parameter to display additional parameters. |
Example
consolesetup.bat -t --logging=plain
Alternatively, you can select the "consolesetup.bat" file in Windows Explorer and right-click it to run it as an administrator. The optional parameters will then not be available to you.

Select JDK
Please specify the desired JDK.
JDK path [C:\SetUps\Intrexx-Steady-Setup-06092021\professional\java\packaged\windows\amd64]

Specify the installation directory
Installation directory [C:\intrexx]:
Press "ENTER" to select the suggested installation directory. The "intrexx" directory will then be created automatically.
Set the instance name
Please select an instance name.
To continue the installation with an empty instance name, please enter $.
Installation instance (default instance = $) [intrexx]:
This step of the installation applies to you if you want to install multiple instances of Intrexx.
Enter the $ sign if you want to install only one instance of Intrexx (default instance).
Give the Intrexx instance a unique name if you want to install multiple Intrexx instances. The different names make it possible to distinguish between the various Intrexx instances. At the same time, this option allows for the parallel installation of Intrexx.
Please enter your release track (Steady, Silent) [STEADY]
Configuring Solr
By default, the Apache Solr search server is installed along with Intrexx. It provides the search functionality for your portal.
By default, the Apache Solr search server is installed on the same server as Intrexx. Therefore, "127.0.0.1" (localhost) is set as the default host. Port 8983 is suggested.
However, you also have the option of installing the Apache Solr search server on a different server. In that case, you'll need to adjust the information accordingly.
The Intrexx Portal Server authenticates itself on the Solr search server using a username and password. Change the default authentication credentials.
