Reviewing Client Verification

How to:

The Client Verification page displays the current status of client configuration and application settings. When you open this page, the tests required to verify that configuration and application settings are open and available are conducted automatically.

Settings marked pass are available for use. Settings marked fail are not available for use.

The automated verification process includes a validation of web server aliases and directory permissions for each type of client communication mode (CGI, WFServlet, or ISAPI).

The Client verification tools, by default, place the verification logs in the drive:\ibi\WebFOCUS82\logs directory. These tools test read, write, and remove permissions for the logs directory. They also test read and write permissions for the drive:\ibi\WebFOCUS82\config directory.

To test a Server connection and the current status of the Graph or Table functionality it can deliver, you must open the Configuration tab, and right-click the icon for the Server you wish to test. All three tests are available on the shortcut menu assigned to each server node.

Procedure: How to Run a Client Verification Test

In the Administration Console, click Diagnostics, and then click Client Verification.

The Client Verification page displays your directory permissions, such as creating and deleting applications, signing in as the administrator, reading and writing from the standard directories, creating and deleting workspaces, and creating and deleting reports.

Note: If you run this test immediately after performing the installation procedure, there might be a delay resulting from a slow or delayed first time initialization of the Tomcat Web Application that supports client operations.
