Set up License Web
Use the License Web setup wizard to choose a database, activate your licence, set up email and sign in.
The first time you open License Web after installing it, a setup wizard starts. It has three steps: Database, Activation and Email Delivery.
Open http://localhost:7070/ to start the wizard.
Choose a database#
License Web supports four databases. Select one in the Database list.
SQLite#
SQLite is an embedded database built into License Web.
- Enter a Database Name.
- Enter a Password to protect the database. Keep this password safe.
- Select Submit.
The database file is created in the DB folder inside the License Web installation folder. To look at the data directly, open the file in any SQLite client with the password you set.
MS SQL#
MS SQL supports both SQL Server authentication and Windows authentication.
- Create a database on your SQL Server.
- Enter the connection details: server, user name and password.
MySQL or PostgreSQL#
- Create a database, and give the user that License Web connects with the permissions it needs on that database.
- Enter the database name, server, user and password.
Activate your product#
Activate License Web with the product key you received when you bought it. Use the exact email address you used for the purchase.
Note
To move License Web to another server with the same key, first deactivate this instance under Admin > Activation.
Set up email delivery#
Choose how License Web sends email: SMTP, Google OAuth or Office 365 OAuth. You can skip this step and set it up later, or leave it unset if you do not want License Web to send email. See Email delivery.
Sign in#
When setup is complete, the sign-in page opens. Sign in with the default admin account.
| Field | Default value |
|---|---|
| Username | admin |
| Password | admin |
Warning
Change the default admin password to a strong one straight after you first sign in.
