ESP "Server" Installation - What is needed?

[Former Member]

Hi guys,

just a simple ESP question. I want to install a ESP Server on a linux machine and use it with my Notebook (with installed ESP Studio). Which components do i need?

I'm not sure if its enough to install ESP for Linux and just add the Server Details under Prefreences >SAP ESP > Run Test.

Thanks

Hello,

That should be all that is needed.  If you are having trouble connecting from ESP Studio on your PC to an ESP Server running on your Linux box, make sure that the "ESP_HOSTNAME" specified in the server's cluster configuration file (typically "node1.xml") can be resolved by the PC.

Open a DOS Command prompt and try to "ping" the server defined by the "ESP_HOSTNAME" parameter.

If your company uses proxy servers, you may have some additional configuration steps to follow in order to allow Studio and the server to communicate.  See this manual with a section on proxy servers:
