5 Installing Eloquence on the Linux platform
Configuring your System
After Eloquence has been installed on your system, you should configure your system. Please note, that all Eloquence configuration files are located in the directory /etc/opt/eloquence6.
- If you intend to use your Linux system as a server, you should enter your permanent license key into the license file.
- Add the required entries to the /etc/services file
runsrv 8010/tcp # Eloquence RUNSRV (Windows integration)
eloqsd 8100/tcp # Eloquence A.06.00 eloqsd server
eloqdb 8102/tcp # Eloquence A.06.00 data base server
eloqdb5 8104/tcp # Eloquence A.06.00 ELOQDB5 server
- Edit the eloq.config configuration file. A template file is provided in /opt/eloquence6/newconfig/config/d.eloq.config
- If you intend to use your system as a server, you need to modify the eloqsd.* configuration files. Template files are provided in the directory /opt/eloquence6/newconfig/config
- If you intend to use your system as a database server, you need to modify the eloqdb6.cfg configuration file. A template file is provided in /opt/eloquence6/newconfig/config/eloqdb6.cfg.
Starting / Stopping Eloquence
The Eloquence servers (eloqsd and eloqdb6) can be configured to start automatically by default if runlevel 2 is entered (after a reboot or single user mode) and to shut down automatically on reboot.
A template configuration and startup/shutdown script is provided in the /opt/
eloquence6/newconfig/startup directory. However, since startup and shutdown scripts depend on your Linux distribution they are not installed automatically. The provided scripts are derived from the HP-UX version and have been tried with the S.u.S.E Linux distribution. Other distributions should be similar, but some details may differ.
