We need an application server (e.g. Tomcat, JBoss) to launch a JVx application using the web launcher. For simplicity, we assume an application is already installed.

The following steps are required for the configuration of the web launcher:

• Download the web user interface
• Unpack the client directory from the archive to the public folder of the web application
• Unpack the server directory from the archive to the WEB-INF folder of the web application (Attention should be paid to the existing deployment descriptor (web.xml)! It is best to transfer the contents manually!)
• Copy the application and all dependent libraries from the public folder WEB-INF/lib directory
• Configure the application in webui.html (section: Application properties) or directly in the deployment descriptor (first remove the properties from webui.html)

After completion of the configuration the JVx application is available for testing as a HTML/Ajax application under the following URL:

http(s)://server:port/app/webui.html
