Moving an existing Monitor one installation to a new server is simple and straightforward. Follow the instructions below:
- Download (the latest) Monitor one installation executable from the FineConnection web site and run this on your new server.
- After the installation has successfully finished, launch Monitor one on the new server for the first time. A new and empty project will be created automatically.
- Configure the Apache web server by following the instructions on the Web server settings page. Select Options|Global configuration from the menu on the Monitor one control panel and after that choose the Web interface tab.
- After you have finished configuring the web server, select Info|License info on the Monitor one control panel. The license info screen opens.
- Do the same on your existing server to show your license key(s) and copy them onto your new server.
- Press Save key(s) and exit Monitor one on your new server.
- Copy the project directory (no child directories) from your old server to your new server. The project directory is the directory where the project database file "<Project name>.fdb" and the project configuration file "<Project name>.amd" reside. By default Monitor one creates all projects in "c:\Monitor one Maps\"
- Start Monitor one on your new server and open your project.
Pay attention to the following:
- Some companies have special firewalls rules for their Monitor one station based on the source IP address. Take the appropriate actions in this case!
- If you're using custom made class images in your project, you should also copy these images to your new server. The class images can be found in: "c:\Program Files\FineConnection\Monitor one\Images\". Monitor one must be restarted after the images have been copied.
